Postby OneWhiteEye » Tue Mar 22, 2011 7:20 am

This thread lists custom BBCodes which are available to be used on the forum. As codes are released, they'll be added here. Standard codes provided by the forum are not listed in this thread. Full documentation of codes is provided in this thread's parent forum. (TBD)


The complete current list (updated Apr 4 2011):
Code: Select all

Background Color: [bgcolor=Color]Text[/bgcolor]
Break (line): [br][/br]

Interfaces for codes appearing this thread are very unlikely to be changed. Some underlying implementations are subject to change, but this should not affect any existing usage.

BBCodes with explanation of parameters follows. Note that codes are not posted alphabetically, rather in order of incorporation.

pdf

Postby OneWhiteEye » Tue Mar 22, 2011 6:43 pm


pdf
Embed PDF document


Usage
Code: Select all
[pdf]url[/pdf]


Parameters
url                url of PDF document


Description
Inlines PDF document at url into post, fitting it wthin horizontal width of post and setting height to standard page aspect. User can activate viewer and browse document inside post.


Remarks
This uses the PDF viewer to embed a PDF into a post. The document is set to fixed dimensions 575x805 (width x height). This is intended to accommodate a standard document aspect ratio with toolbars, occupying (near) maximum post width, but is only an estimate. Document settings, page size and user preferences all influence how the viewer displays the document within this fixed size.

Inlined PDFs can make page loading slow for the viewer. Please do not inline excessively large files without good cause.* PDFs attached to posts cannot be inlined at this time.

A user must have a browser capable of displaying inline PDFs, and must have Adobe Reader plug-in installed. Not all browsers will display, but a link is automatically provided by which the PDF can be downloaded and should be visible in all browsers.

* Soon a separate BBCode will be supplied to show/hide the PDF with a button, only loading if the viewer clicks show.

Example:

http://www.pdf-archive.com/2011/03/22/einsteen-wtc7-paper/einsteen-wtc7-paper.pdf
