Text Types

It is possible to define multiple default text styles and then apply them to a ViewHelper using the type attribute. This is for instance useful if you have different types of headlines. It is possible to define types for the TextViewHelper, HeadlineViewHelper and ListViewHelper. In addition you can define types in the generalText section, these types are available for all ViewHelpers mentioned.

Text types take part in the settings inheritance, with the following priority (higher priority overwrites lower priority):

1. settings.generalText
2. settings.text | settings.headline | settings.list
3. settings.text.types | settings.headline.types | settings.list.types | settings.generalText.types
4. ViewHelper arguments

plugin.tx_pdfviewhelpers.settings {
	headline {
		types {
			h1 {
				fontSize = 24
				padding {
					top = 6
					bottom = 3
				}
			}
			h2 {
				fontsize = 18
				padding {
					top = 4
					bottom = 2
				}
			}
			h3 {
				fontSize = 11
				fontStyle = bold
				padding {
					top = 2
					bottom = 1
				}
			}
		}
	}
}
