Generate PDF files in Vim with ease with the fpdf.vim plugin. It allows users to easily create high-quality PDF documents without the need for additional software.
For those unfamiliar with Vim, it's a text editor initially developed for the Amiga computer in the early '90s. Vim was created to expand upon the functionality of the vi editor, introducing plenty of additional features meant to help edit program source code. Although Vim is cross-platform, it's most popular on Unix-like operating systems. The software is free and open-source, released under a license that's compatible with the GNU General Public License.
To start using fpdf.vim, all you need to do is add the plugin to your Vim runtimepath. From there, you can use the plugin to create a new PDF file, set the font and font size, add pages and text, and more. The plugin comes with an array of commands that enable you to customize your PDF files to your liking.
One notable aspect of this plugin is that it requires xxd, which comes bundled with Vim. This allows fpdf.vim to embed fonts and images into PDF files. The latest release also includes support for font and image embedding, so you can get even more out of this plugin.
Overall, if you're a Vim user who frequently has to work with PDF files, fpdf.vim is an excellent choice. It allows you to save time by staying within the Vim environment while generating high-quality PDF files.
