Rails 3和Prawn-HTML格式不起作用？

Question

I opened Prawn's manual page and try to use HTML formatting in PDF document. Specifically,

pdf.table([["Just <font size='18'>some</font> <b><i>inline</i></b>", "", ""],
          ["<color rgb='FF00FF'>styles</color> being applied here", "", ""]],
          :cell_style => { :inline_format => true }, :cell_style => {:borders => []})

The problem is, that the HTML tags are displayd as the HTML tags, have anyone the same problem? By the documentation the HTML tags should display a HTML property, but in fact are displayed only HTML tags.

Have anyone a tip how to fix it?

I use the Prawn in the version

* prawn (0.12.0)
* prawnto (0.0.4)

Answer 1

它看起来不再像这样（ Prawn html formatting ）-如果您想使用HTML来制作PDF，可以使用也支持CSS的PDFKit（ https://github.com/jdpace/PDFKit ）。

Answer 2

I have used prawn to create the pdf and if u take my opinion u dont need to use the prawnto gem with prawn in rails 3. i have just created a blog on this.check this out i have explained it from scratch on how to use prawn with the sample invoice.
