Text Editor

[viglu]

Hello,

I'm new to Qt. I need a text editor, with the following features
- page header / footer
- margins
- replace text
- export to PDF.

It's possible with Qt directly or need I to use other software.


Regards,
Luc

Start with a QTextEdit, and for the PDF export functionality, have a look at QPrinter - you can set the output type to PdfFormat.

Hi

All these requirement are ppossible in Qt

Use QTextBrowser or QTextEdit

- page header / footer
need some simple implementation
- margins
- replace text
need some simple implementation, Hardly 1 slot with 2-3 lines of code
This is by default so no probs
- export to PDF.
Here u have to use xpdf 3rd party library to do so. its easy though

Why, when QPrinter supports PDF output?

No need for 3rd party libraries for exporting content to PDF as fatjuicymole pointed out. There is a simple example in Qt documentation about how to write PDF file, see QPrinter::isValid

Can you tell me where I can find some example for implementing a page header/footer ?

If you use Linux, you certainly know Kate, the Advanced Text Editor.
So, why don't download the full Kate source from http://www.kate-editor.org/.
