PANDA_MAKEDATE(3)                                            PANDA_MAKEDATE(3)


NAME

       panda_makedate - format a date into the internal PDF representation


SYNOPSIS

        #include<panda/constants.h>
        #include<panda/functions.h>
        void panda_makedate (int year, int month, int day, int hour, int minutes, int seconds);


DESCRIPTION

       <command>PANDA INTERNAL</command>. The function makedate generates a
       date that is suitable to be embedded into a PDF. This date will include
       information about the timezone in which the PDF was created and the
       relationship that this timezone has with GMT (Zulu) time. Mostly this
       function is used internally within Panda, and should not concern the
       average programmer too much.


RETURNS

       The date passed formatted as a null terminated string.


EXAMPLE

        #include<panda/constants.h>
        #include<panda/functions.h>
        printf("Panda would encode 19 July 1977 3:14:23 AM as: %s\n",
        panda_makedate(1977, 7, 19, 3, 14, 23));
