PANDA_NEWTEMPLATE(3)                                      PANDA_NEWTEMPLATE(3)


NAME

       panda_newtemplate - create a template page in the PDF


SYNOPSIS

        #include<panda/constants.h>
        #include<panda/functions.h>
        void panda_newtemplate(panda_pdf *document, char *pageSize);


DESCRIPTION

       This function is used to create 'template' pages which can then be
       refered to on other pages. For instance, if you were creating a
       document that used a standard letter head, then it would make sense to
       construct the letterhead as a template, and then use this on all the
       pages. The created template looks and feels just like any other page in
       the document for the purposes of creating content. Refer to the
       <command>panda_newpage</command> man page for details on how to use
       pages.


RETURNS

       A pointer to the template page


EXAMPLE

        #include<panda/constants.h>
        #include<panda/functions.h>
        panda_pdf *document;
        panda_page *templatepage;
        panda_init();
        document = panda_open("filename.pdf", "w");
        templatepage = panda_newtemplate (document, panda_pagesize_a4);
