Using MS Publisher XP(2002), I was able to create a COM object and
build a document! Apparently, previous Publisher versions did not
operate on the COM standard.
So far, I have managed to create a new document and open an
existing .pub document, add pages at a designated position, add
graphics to the page, and print the document out to a postscript file.
Unfortunately, the most necessary thing, adding TextBoxes and
inserting text, remains a mystery. I can't seem to transpose the VBA
samples to the Perl equivalent. I am hoping someone on this list is
better versed in the translation process.
Here is the code snippet I am trying to translate to Perl. Help is much
appreciated:
VBA Code #1 (Creates the textbox):
Set shpTextBox = ActiveDocument.Pages(1).Shapes.AddTextBox _ (Orientation:=pbTextOrientationHorizontal, _ Left:=144, Top:=144, _ Width:=72, Height:=18)
VBA Code #2 (Places the text in the textbox and formats it):
With ActiveDocument.Pages(1).Shapes(1).TextFrame.TextRange .Text = "My Text" With .Font .Bold = msoTrue .Size = 25 .Name = "Algerian" End With End With
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
