+6Include the possibility to align text (left/right/center and topmiddle/bottom in the PDFStyler.
Currently the alignment of text (coming from e.g. a LabelPointReplacer) in the PDFPageFormatter needs to be done by trial and error, and still this does not give satisfactory results when text length can differ.
+62Yes, there's a lot of trial and error when making a nice PDF layout in FME. Pinging @inge for this one too.
+8Any ideas as to how I can mid-align text? We have a rather critical system running that generates PDF documents, and I great dearly regret setting it up in FME :(
Yeah this makes total sense working with dynamic text alignment like that can get frustrating real quick especially when length keeps changing
It would definitely help if PDFStyler had built in options for left right center and vertical alignment instead of relying on trial and error maybe worth suggesting an enhancement or checking if newer versions added something similar
Also while testing layouts you could try using free pdf editor online tool just to quickly adjust and preview text alignment ideas before applying them in code
