#610 extend feature boxes for icewind/mythos CS

[Jessomadic]

Description:

Added a dedicated Feature Sheet to both the Icewind Dale Sheet and the Mythos Sheet. To not waste the space on the Mythos sheet which is about half a page for features I added a new field "Features-and-traits-3" for the full pages on Mythos and kept the normal "features-and-traits-2" but limited it to 500 chars to avoid it shrinking to unreadable sizes.

Related issue (if applicable): fixes #608

Checklist:

Can't rename :features-and-traits-2 to :features-and-traits-3.
It is the form field name in the PDF that needs to match.

Testing the other PDF's they come across blank.

[Jessomadic]

Sounds good. I found a fallback that I can make whats called a "PDF Portfolio" that will allow multiple of the same form field name while not linking them so I can set Char limits

[Jessomadic]

It is strange that they are coming across blank though

@Jessomadic
This work flow takes the form data from the "download-form" in the browser and loops through all the elements in it.

If you look in the data, there is no :features-and-traits-3. But there is :features-and-traits-2.

It's looping through all the fields being passed down from the as built character.

Ideally, we need a chunk of code that looks at the size of what features-and-traits are going to be and adds another page if needed.

Example, where 900 is the character length that looks good in the PDF Text field. something like:

do while ( features-and-traits >=900 )
add page
take first 900 characters from features-and-traits and insert it into the page.
remove the first 900 characters from features-and-traits and set features-and-traits to the new value.

The routes is responsible for filling the PDF text fields, and it is called here.

(pdf/write-fields! doc fields (not chrome?) font-sizes)

Implementation of it lives here:

orcpub/src/clj/orcpub/pdf.clj

Lines 31 to 55 in 6b709e7

	(defn write-fields! [doc fields flatten font-sizes]
	(let [catalog (.getDocumentCatalog doc)
	form (.getAcroForm catalog)
	res (or (.getDefaultResources form) (PDResources.))]
	(.setNeedAppearances form true)
	(.setDefaultResources form res)
	(doseq [[k v] fields]
	(try
	(let [field (.getField form (name k))]
	(when field
	(if (and flatten (font-sizes k) (instance? PDTextField field))
	(.setDefaultAppearance field (str "/Helv " " " (font-sizes k) " Tf 0 0 0 rg"))
	;; this prints out weird boxes
	#_(.setDefaultAppearance field (str COSName/DA "/" (.getName font-name) " " (font-sizes k 8) " Tf 0 0 0 rg")))
	(.setValue
	field
	(cond
	(instance? PDCheckBox field) (if v "Yes" "Off")
	(instance? PDTextField field) (str v)
	:else nil))))
	(catch Exception e (prn "failed writing field: " k v (strace/print-stack-trace e)))))
	(when flatten
	(.setNeedAppearances form false)
	(.flatten form))))

Which is just looping through all the fields/elements that are in the edn.

The (doseq [[k v] fields] is basically the do while above for all the fields/elements being passed in, eg :religion :dex-save :hp-current etc.

I don't know. It's a toss up to break up that function or just live with it.

[Jessomadic]

lets just live with it. I'll make a workaround. It was more if it was an easy 10 min change it would be nice to have but I can get it all done in Adobe. Thanks for breaking it down though that explains alot

I'll look into the logic zotz pointed out once I get a free weekend again.
