Roadmap

Fixes

  • The entire library needs to be poked and prodded to find layout problems, especially within nested layout structures.

Roadmap

The following is a list of items that could be added.

  • URL links.
  • Clickable regions within documents.
  • Grids: grid layout is limited at present. I would welcome feedback as to what layout support would be useful.
  • Justified Text. This could be done poorly easily. Using TextKit and hyphenation would give a better implementation. It seems that NSAttributedString has some support for hyphenation. Need to exlore this as it would be an easier implementation than TextKit.
  • Barcodes. This is probably beyond the scope of this project and should be done with another library and used in PDFBlocks as an image.
  • Charts. This is probably beyond the scope of this project and should be done with another library and used in PDFBlocks as an image.

Longterm Goals

I would highly welcome collaboration in the following areas.

  • Unit tests.
  • Right to Left language support.
  • This project has been designed with the possiblity of a future cross platform implementation. The iOS/macOS implementation relies upon CoreGraphics and CoreText. I believe that Skia could provide the required functionality for a true cross platform implementation.
