How to add Text to PDF via Cloud Python SDK

The following code snippet, by the Aspose.PDF, loads a PDF and custom font file, defines the item with the custom style (text color, background color, font, rotation, alignment, and spacing), and specifies the rectangle in which the paragraph should be placed on the page. This is useful for adding stylized text to a certain area of the PDF page. To add text into PDF, we’ll use Aspose.PDF Cloud Python SDK. This Cloud SDK assists Python programmers in developing cloud-based PDF creator, annotator, editor, and converter apps using Python programming language via Aspose.PDF REST API. Simply create an account at Aspose for Cloud and get your application information. Once you have the App SID & key, you are ready to give the Aspose.PDF Cloud Python SDK. If the python package is hosted on Github, you can install directly from Github:

Installation from Github


     
    pip install git+https://github.com/aspose-pdf-cloud/aspose-pdf-cloud-python.git

Package Manager Console Command

     
    pip install asposepdfcloud

Add Text to PDF using Python


    file_name = 'pages.pdf'
    self.uploadFile(file_name)

    # Upload font file
    font_file = 'Righteous-Regular.ttf'
    self.uploadFile(font_file)

    # Specify the page number and define the text area (rectangle)
    page_number = 1
    rectangle = asposepdfcloud.models.Rectangle(100, 100, 300, 300)

    # Define colors for text foreground and background
    foreground_color = asposepdfcloud.models.Color(a=0x00, r=0x00, g=0xFF, b=0x00)  # Blue foreground
    background_color = asposepdfcloud.models.Color(a=0x00, r=0xFF, g=0x00, b=0x00)  # Green background

    # Define text properties using TextState
    text_state = asposepdfcloud.models.TextState(
        font_size=10,
        font='Righteous',
        foreground_color=foreground_color,
        background_color=background_color,
        font_style=asposepdfcloud.models.FontStyles.REGULAR,
        font_file=self.temp_folder + '/' + font_file
    )

    # Create a text segment with specified text and text state
    segment = asposepdfcloud.models.Segment(value='segment 1', text_state=text_state)

    # Add the segment to a text line with right horizontal alignment
    text_line = asposepdfcloud.models.TextLine(
        horizontal_alignment=asposepdfcloud.models.TextHorizontalAlignment.RIGHT,
        segments=[segment]
    )

    # Create a paragraph with the text line and set additional properties
    paragraph = asposepdfcloud.models.Paragraph(lines=[text_line])
    paragraph.rectangle = rectangle
    paragraph.left_margin = 10
    paragraph.right_margin = 10
    paragraph.top_margin = 20
    paragraph.bottom_margin = 20
    paragraph.horizontal_alignment = asposepdfcloud.models.TextHorizontalAlignment.FULLJUSTIFY
    paragraph.line_spacing = asposepdfcloud.models.LineSpacing.FONTSIZE
    paragraph.rotation = 10
    paragraph.subsequent_lines_indent = 20
    paragraph.vertical_alignment = asposepdfcloud.models.VerticalAlignment.CENTER
    paragraph.wrap_mode = asposepdfcloud.models.WrapMode.BYWORDS

    # Set the options for adding the paragraph
    opts = {
        "paragraph": paragraph,
        "folder": self.temp_folder
    }
 

Work with Text in PDF

Text can be dynamically added to customize a PDF for a specific user, such as adding their name or personalized message. This is often used in marketing materials or for personalized reports. Adding text in specific fonts, colors, and alignments can make certain sections more readable and visually appealing, creating a better user experience. Text additions can help maintain consistent information across different PDF versions, avoiding manual edits and ensuring that key information remains in place. Add the Text into PDF documents with Aspose.PDF Cloud Python SDK.

With our Python library you can:

  • Combine PDF documents.
  • Split PDF Files.
  • Convert PDF to other formats, and vice versa.
  • Manipulate Annotations.
  • Work with Images in PDF, etc.
  • You can try out our free App to add the text into PDF files online and test the functionality.
