<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 580809 by <a href="/recipes/users/4193772/">Jorj X. McKie</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/fitz/">fitz</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/mupdf/">mupdf</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/pdf/">pdf</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/textbox/">textbox</a>). </p> <p>This method inserts text into a predefined rectangular area of a (new or existing) PDF page. Words are distributed across the available space, put on new lines when required etc. Line breaks and tab characters are respected / resolved. Text can be aligned in the box (left, center, right) and fonts can be freely chosen. The method returns a float indicating how vertical space is left over after filling the area.</p>

McKie</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/fitz/">fitz</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/pdf_generation/">pdf_generation</a>). </p> <p>PyMuPDF now supports drawing pie charts on a PDF page.</p> <p>Important parameters for the function are center of the circle, one of the two arc's end points and the angle of the circular sector. The function will draw the pie piece (in a variety of options) and return the arc's calculated other end point for any subsequent processing.</p> <p>This example creates a chart of the parliament seat distribution for political parties in the current German Bundestag.</p>

Revision 2. </p> <p>Just another demonstration of PyMuPDF's features to deal with annotations:</p> <p>Take a page with several annotations and let them change places in reverse order: first and last annot exchange their rectangles, second and second to last, etc.</p> <p>The annotation images are enlarged or compressed as required to fit into their new areas.</p>
