h1. Exporting a document to PDF
Found it very easy to convert a QTextDocument to PDF in Qt. And useful in scenarios like creating reports etc.
For example, Consider the following snippet,
QString fileName = QFileDialog::getSaveFileName(this, tr("Save File&quot;),<br /> "untitled&quot;,tr("PDF Document ('''.pdf)"));<br /> QPrinter printer;<br /> printer.setOutputFormat(QPrinter::PdfFormat);<br /> printer.setOutputFileName(fileName);<br /> doc->print(&printer); // doc is QTextDocument'''
We can use the printer class to print the document to a file : a pdf file.
