.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This class is a formatter that takes Pod and renders it as RTF, good for
viewing/printing in MSWord, WordPad/write.exe, TextEdit, etc.
.PP
This is a subclass of Pod::Simple and inherits all its methods.
.SH "FORMAT CONTROL ATTRIBUTES"
.IX Header "FORMAT CONTROL ATTRIBUTES"
You can set these attributes on the parser object before you
call \f(CW\*(C`parse_file\*(C'\fR (or a similar method) on it:
.ie n .IP "$parser\->head1_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$parser\fR\->head1_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.IX Item "$parser->head1_halfpoint_size( halfpoint_integer );"
.PD 0
.ie n .IP "$parser\->head2_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$parser\fR\->head2_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.IX Item "$parser->head2_halfpoint_size( halfpoint_integer );"
.ie n .IP "$parser\->head3_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$parser\fR\->head3_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.IX Item "$parser->head3_halfpoint_size( halfpoint_integer );"
.ie n .IP "$parser\->head4_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$parser\fR\->head4_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.IX Item "$parser->head4_halfpoint_size( halfpoint_integer );"
.PD
These methods set the size (in half-points, like 52 for 26\-point)
that these heading levels will appear as.
.ie n .IP "$parser\->codeblock_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$parser\fR\->codeblock_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.IX Item "$parser->codeblock_halfpoint_size( halfpoint_integer );"
This method sets the size (in half-points, like 21 for 10.5\-point)
that codeblocks ("verbatim sections") will appear as.
.ie n .IP "$parser\->header_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$parser\fR\->header_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.IX Item "$parser->header_halfpoint_size( halfpoint_integer );"
This method sets the size (in half-points, like 15 for 7.5\-point)
that the header on each page will appear in. The header
is usually just "\fImodulename\fR p. \fIpagenumber\fR".
.ie n .IP "$parser\->normal_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$parser\fR\->normal_halfpoint_size( \fIhalfpoint_integer\fR );" 4
.IX Item "$parser->normal_halfpoint_size( halfpoint_integer );"
This method sets the size (in half-points, like 26 for 13\-point)
that normal paragraphic text will appear in.
.ie n .IP "$parser\->no_proofing_exemptions( \fItrue_or_false\fR );" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$parser\fR\->no_proofing_exemptions( \fItrue_or_false\fR );" 4
.IX Item "$parser->no_proofing_exemptions( true_or_false );"
Set this value to true if you don't want the formatter to try
putting a hidden code on all Perl symbols (as best as it can
notice them) that labels them as being not in English, and
so not worth spellchecking.
.ie n .IP "$parser\->doc_lang( \fImicrosoft_decimal_language_code\fR )" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$parser\fR\->doc_lang( \fImicrosoft_decimal_language_code\fR )" 4
.IX Item "$parser->doc_lang( microsoft_decimal_language_code )"
This sets the language code to tag this document as being in. By
default, it is currently the value of the environment variable
\&\f(CW\*(C`RTFDEFLANG\*(C'\fR, or if that's not set, then the value
1033 (for US English).
.Sp
Setting this appropriately is useful if you want to use the RTF
to spellcheck, and/or if you want it to hyphenate right.
.Sp
Here are some notable values:
.Sp
.Vb 12
\& 1033 US English
\& 2057 UK English
\& 3081 Australia English
\& 4105 Canada English
\& 1034 Spain Spanish
\& 2058 Mexico Spanish
\& 1031 Germany German
\& 1036 France French
\& 3084 Canada French
\& 1035 Finnish
\& 1044 Norwegian (Bokmal)
\& 2068 Norwegian (Nynorsk)
