Hi there,
PDF::API2 confusingly has two text methods, one on PDF::API2::Page to get the text content, then a second on that PDF::API2::Content object to output the text. It's the second that takes the -underline => 'auto' option.
use strict;
use warnings;
use PDF::API2;
my $font_size=10;
my $pdf = PDF::API2->new();
#A4 Landscap
+
$pdf->mediabox('Letter');
my $page = $pdf->page;
# font settings
+
my $fnt = $pdf->corefont('Helvetica',-encode => 'latin1');
my $boldfont=$pdf->corefont('Helvetica-Bold',-encode => 'latin1');
my $txt = $page->text();
my $top = 700;
my $left_margin = 50;
$txt->textstart;
$txt->font($boldfont,$font_size);
$txt->translate( 400, $top-65 );
$txt->text( "Trying to underline this sentence!",
-underline => 'auto' );
$pdf->saveas('test.pdf');

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
