成品一览
一个虚构的天文俱乐部为2027年8月2日日全食之前的四个周四晚间讲座做的海报。群青色天空填满A3页面的上方三分之二。右侧,黑色的月亮遮住一轮被裁切线切掉一块的柠檬黄太阳,一圈用代码画出的日冕在两者身后散开。标题The Shadow Returns用120 pt的Funnel Display,立在导语之上,位于天空底部。地平线下,四个蓝色日期领起各场讲座,小字说明分两栏排在一条蓝色色带之上。每个元素都挂在出血、页面、所在设计槽或另一个元素上,偏移量从那里算起。第二张重复这张海报,在每个元素的框以及页眉、页脚容器周围画一圈粉色边框,并给十三个元素加上标记,印出各自的定位方式。
这道食谱解答
- 怎样把设计元素相对页面、出血边或彼此定位,而不是用坐标?
- 怎样给每一页加水印、背景底色或装饰图片?
简短回答
const SKY = 272; // mm from the trim's top edge to the horizon, the sky's lower edge
const INSET = BLEED + MARGIN; // from the bleed's edge to the text's edge
const AIR = 14; // mm between the standfirst and the horizon
const poster = () => ({ enabled: true, slot: { elements: [ // array order is paint order
// 'bleed' and 'page' are frames of the sheet; 'container' would be this heading's own box.
{ kind: 'box', id: 'sky', style: { backgroundColor: col('sky') }, // no width: fills the bleed
placement: at('bleed', 'top-left', 0, 0, { height: mm(BLEED + SKY) }) },
...eclipse(), // the Sun hangs from the trim's corner, the Moon and the corona from the Sun
// The headline stands on the horizon and grows upwards: 'above' puts an element's
// bottom-left corner on the top-left corner of its anchor, so a longer title lifts the kicker.
text('deck', '{attr.deck}', FACE.deck, { ...at('#sky', 'align-bottom', INSET, -AIR),
size: { maxWidth: mm(153) } }), // shrink-wraps its lines, but wraps at 153 mm
text('title', '{titleText}', FACE.title, at('#deck', 'above', 0, -9)), // breaks at the \\
text('kicker', '{attr.kicker}', FACE.kicker, at('#title', 'above', 0, -7)),
...programme(), // four columns chained off the horizon
] } }); // hook-up: headings.levels[0] = { span: 'page', breakBefore, advancedDesign: poster() }
// {titleText} is the heading's text; each {attr.*} is written on its line in content.md.

- 素材
- 无:所有图片都用代码绘制
做法
#1 · 把两个元素钉在页面上,其余挂在它们身上
代码见上面的简短回答。其中anchor.to指明元素挂在什么上:'bleed'和'page'是页面的两个框(page.cutLines关闭时二者是同一个框),'container'是设计槽自己的框,'#id'是另一个元素(元素定位)。没有宽度的框会一直伸到其参照框的另一侧边缘,所以天空从左到右填满出血。相对天空定位的元素从天空的左边缘量起,也就是出血的左边缘,所以导语的x取INSET,即18 mm。标题区从天空下边缘往上搭:'align-bottom'让导语框的底边位于该边缘之上AIR(14 mm)处,'above'让每个元素的底边落在下面那个元素的顶边上,所以标题多占几行时,会把眉题往上顶,而不会压住导语。设计区域下方,小字说明从最低元素(主讲人那一行)之下至少3.2 mm处的第一条16 pt网格线开始;这3.2 mm是标题默认的下外边距。
#2 · 把月亮和日冕挂在太阳上
const SUN = 150; // mm across; the Moon is drawn the same size
const CORONA = 300; // mm, the square picture of the corona
const HALO = (CORONA - SUN) / 2; // how far the corona reaches past the Sun on every side
const BITE = { x: 2, y: 2.5 }; // mm the Moon sits off the Sun: a sliver is left at upper left
const disc = (id, colour, placement) => ({ kind: 'box', id, placement: { ...placement,
size: square(SUN) }, style: { backgroundColor: col(colour), borderRadius: mm(SUN / 2) } });
const eclipse = () => [
{ kind: 'image', id: 'corona', resourceId: 'corona', // listed before the discs: painted behind
placement: at('#sun', 'align-top', -HALO, -HALO, square(CORONA)) },
disc('sun', 'sun', at('page', 'top-right', 30, 25)), // 30 mm of it past the right edge
disc('moon', 'ink', at('#sun', 'align-top', BITE.x, BITE.y)),
];
太阳是唯一钉在页面(成品框)上的元素。从'top-right'角量起,正的x会越过右边缘,所以圆盘有30 mm被切掉。月亮和日冕用'align-top'挂在太阳上,移动太阳,两者跟着动。它们的偏移量从太阳的左上角算起:月亮向右2 mm、向下2.5 mm,在左上方露出一弯太阳;日冕向左上方退HALO(75 mm),使它300 mm的正方形以150 mm的圆盘为中心。日冕是一个图像元素,尺寸取其框的大小(图像元素),并在列表中排在两个圆盘之前,所以画在它们后面。
#3 · 把各场讲座串成栏
const GUT = 7; // mm between the evenings, and between the two columns of text under them
const COL = (A3.width - 2 * MARGIN - 3 * GUT) / 4; // four columns across the text width: 60 mm
const DROP = 12; // mm from the horizon to the dates
const programme = () => [1, 2, 3, 4].flatMap((n) => [
text(`day${n}`, `{attr.d${n}}`, FACE.day, n === 1
? at('#sky', 'below', INSET, DROP, wide(COL)) // the first date hangs from the horizon
: at(`#day${n - 1}`, 'right-of', GUT, 0, wide(COL))), // the others from the one before
text(`talk${n}`, `{attr.t${n}}`, FACE.talk, at(`#day${n}`, 'below', 0, 3, wide(COL))),
text(`who${n}`, `{attr.s${n}}`, FACE.who, at(`#talk${n}`, 'below', 0, 2.5, wide(COL))),
]);
每个日期、讲座题目和主讲人行都有固定的size.width,值为COL;'right-of'加上GUT把下一个日期放到右边一栏。没有宽度时,日期会收缩到数字本身的宽度(“8”宽17 mm),于是“15”会紧跟其后7 mm开始,每个讲座题目也会排成一行伸进下一栏。COL把正文宽度分成四份,栏间距同下方两栏小字一样是7 mm,这样小字的第二栏正好位于22之下。每个讲座题目'below'挂在其日期下,每行主讲人挂在其题目下,所以一个题目折成三行时,只会把它自己的主讲人往下推。
#4 · 把色带放进页脚,每页都印
const MARK = 10; // mm, the club's mark
const PAD = (FOOT - MARK) / 2; // centres the mark in the bottom margin
const markTall = { height: mm(MARK) }; // as tall as the mark: the line is centred on it
const footer = { elements: [
{ kind: 'box', id: 'band', style: { backgroundColor: col('sky') }, // the bottom margin, bled
placement: at('bleed', 'bottom-left', 0, 0, { height: mm(BLEED + FOOT) }) },
// The container runs from the text down to the trim: 'bottom-*' counts up, 'top-*' down.
{ kind: 'image', id: 'mark', resourceId: 'mark',
placement: at('container', 'bottom-left', 0, -PAD, square(MARK)) },
text('club', '{attr.club}', FACE.foot, at('#mark', 'right-of', 3, 0, markTall)),
text('free', '{attr.free}', FACE.foot, at('container', 'top-right', 0, PAD, markTall)),
] };
凡是每页都要印的东西,比如这条色带,都放进页眉或页脚设计槽;带有自己页眉或页脚的标题样式,会在其所属章节的页面上替换这个设计槽。guides样式的页脚重复了这四个元素,并加上边框和标记,所以色带和标志在两张上都会印出。页脚的容器就是下页边距,从正文一直到裁切线:'bottom-left'从裁切线往上量,'top-right'从正文往下量,标志的−10和“Free entry”一行的+10落在色带中间同一条10 mm宽的带上(页眉和页脚)。页脚在正文之后绘制,不占用正文空间,所以FOOT同时设定下页边距和色带高度,色带也就不会碰到上面的文字。
#5 · 用同一份配置画出结构线
const GUIDE = { borderColor: col('guide'), borderWidth: pt(1) };
const signed = ({ value }) => `${value < 0 ? '−' : '+'}${Math.abs(value)}`; // all offsets in mm
const describe = ({ id, placement: { anchor: { to, edge }, offset = {} } }) => [`#${id}`,
`${edge} ${to}`, // the two words of anchor: { to, edge }
['x', 'y'].filter((k) => offset[k]?.value).map((k) => `${k} ${signed(offset[k])}`).join(' '),
].filter(Boolean).join(' · ');
// A border never changes an element's size (padding does), so each frame traces its box.
// An image or a rounded box gets a square frame of its size, hung from its top-left corner.
const frame = (el) => (el.kind === 'text' ? [{ ...el, box: { ...el.box, ...GUIDE } }]
: el.kind === 'box' && !el.style.borderRadius ? [{ ...el, style: { ...el.style, ...GUIDE } }]
: [el, { kind: 'box', id: `${el.id}-box`, style: GUIDE,
placement: at(`#${el.id}`, 'align-top', 0, 0, el.placement.size) }]);
const tag = (el, [edge, x = 0, y = 0, note]) => text(`${el.id}-tag`, note ?? describe(el),
face('Martian Mono', 8.5, 500, 'ink', { box: { backgroundColor: col('guide'),
padding: { top: pt(1.6), bottom: pt(1.2), left: pt(3), right: pt(3) } } }),
at(`#${el.id}`, edge, x, y));
const guides = (elements, tags) => [...elements.flatMap(frame),
...elements.filter((el) => tags[el.id]).map((el) => tag(el, tags[el.id]))];
const container = (id) => ({ kind: 'box', id, style: GUIDE, // the slot's own box, drawn
placement: at('container', 'top-left', 0, 0, { width: 'fill', height: 'fill' }) });
const TAGS = { // where each tag sits against its element: [edge, x, y, text]
sky: ['align-bottom', INSET, -3], corona: ['align-bottom', 90, -2], sun: ['above'],
moon: ['below', 20, 2], kicker: ['above'], title: ['above'], deck: ['above'],
day1: ['above', 0, -6], day2: ['above'], who1: ['below'],
mark: ['above', 0, -2], club: ['above', 69, -2], free: ['above', -30, -2],
header: ['align-bottom', 0, -2, t({ en: 'header container', es: 'contenedor de la cabecera' })],
footer: ['align-bottom', 0, -2, t({ en: 'footer container', es: 'contenedor del pie' })],
};
guides()遍历海报的所有元素。文本元素在其框上加边框,方形框在其样式上加边框;两者都不会移动任何东西,因为只有内边距会让框变大。图像或圆盘则得到一个与自身同尺寸、挂在其左上角的方框,这样月亮和日冕所挂的太阳左上角也画了出来。每个标记是一段挂在所属元素上的文本,由describe()根据该元素自己的placement写成,因此标记不会与它所标注的配置不一致。第二个标题上的{style="guides"}引入这套设计以及它自己的页眉和页脚(标题样式)。没有宽度的标记只能用它的锚点到容器右边缘之间的空间,所以#free的标记从其文本左侧30 mm处开始。内容continuation中的pageIndexOffset: 1让海报成为左页,查看器因此把两张并排显示。

Every lecture begins at 19:30 and lasts about an hour, questions included. The Umbra Circle hall is at 14 Lighthouse Road; the doors open at 19:00, entry is free and there is no booking, so the 120 seats go to whoever comes first. On 29 April every listener takes home a pair of eclipse glasses made to ISO 12312-2: wear them through each partial phase, and take them off only while the Sun is completely covered. On eclipse morning the Circle sets up filtered telescopes on the harbour wall. # The\\Shadow\\Returns {style="guides" kicker="April 2027 · Thursdays at 19:30" deck="Four talks to get ready for the total eclipse of 2 August 2027, when the Moon’s shadow crosses the Strait of Gibraltar." d1="8" t1="Why the Moon fits the Sun" s1="Marta Iribarren, astronomer" d2="15" t2="Where the shadow will fall" s2="Óscar Beltrán, meteorologist" d3="22" t3="What the corona tells us" s3="Lucía Ferrándiz, physicist" d4="29" t4="Looking at the Sun without harm" s4="Tomás Rey, optometrist" club="Umbra Circle · amateur astronomers since 1987" free="Free entry · no booking"} **How to read this sheet.** Each pink frame is an element’s box as laid out, and a tag gives an element’s id, the edge it is pinned by, what it is pinned to and any offset in millimetres. Above the footer only two elements hang from the sheet itself: the sky from the bleed and the Sun from the page, which is the trim. Every other one hangs from an element, so a longer title lifts the kicker, and the four evenings move with the horizon. The frames in the top and bottom margins are the header and footer containers.

#加3 mm出血和裁切标记
把BLEED设为3 mm会打开裁切线,并把天空和底部色带推进它们所挂的出血3 mm,而INSET让文字留在页边距上;太阳、月亮和日冕挂在页面上,由于1.4.1不会把设计元素裁切到出血范围,它们会越过白色页边距一直延伸到纸边。
-const BLEED = 0; // 毫米;交付印刷时设为3,下面的page.cutLines随之打开
+const BLEED = 3; // 毫米;交付印刷时设为3,下面的page.cutLines随之打开#抬高地平线
从SKY减去20 mm会抬高天空的边缘,导语、标题、眉题和讲座的十二段文字随之上移,小字说明也从更高的一条网格线开始;太阳挂在页面上,所以第二处改动把它同样抬高20 mm,否则Shadow的“w”会碰到月牙。
-const SKY = 272; // 从裁切框上边缘到地平线(即天空下边缘)的毫米数
+const SKY = 252; // 从裁切框上边缘到地平线(即天空下边缘)的毫米数
- disc('sun', 'sun', at('page', 'top-right', 30, 25)), // 有30 mm越过右边缘
+ disc('sun', 'sun', at('page', 'top-right', 30, 5)), // 有30 mm越过右边缘常见问题
易错点
设计文本的lineHeight是倍数,不是尺寸
在设计槽位中,文本元素的lineHeight是其字号的倍数(lineHeight: 1.05)。在postext 1.4.1中,写成pt(15)这样的尺寸值不会被拒绝:章首页的高度会算成NaN,它预留的空间(连同minHeight)被丢弃,也不给出警告,正文就排到了标题底下。 页面设计中的文字、线条和框 →
易错点
替换调色板时,设计元素和引用颜色不会跟着变
postext 1.4.1把colorPalette读入文字样式(正文、标题、列表、题注、表格、框),但不读入页眉、页脚、章首页和篇章页的元素,也不读入bodyText.referenceColor:它们保留写在paletteId旁边的十六进制颜色。替换调色板时(例如做深色屏幕版或换色),在构建前根据colorPalette重写每一个关联的颜色。 语义调色板 →
易错点
传入任何headings对象都会关掉H1换页
默认情况下,H1换页到右页(always-odd),但只要传入headings对象,这个默认值就会被重置,于是各章接排,span: 'page'也不起作用。在每份配置中重新写明headings.levels[0].breakBefore: { enabled: true, parity }。 从右页开始的章 →
易错点
配置按对象身份缓存:每次新建一个对象
引擎按对象身份缓存解析后的配置,所以就地修改配置再构建,会复用旧的结果。每次构建都新建一个对象,这也是食谱的配置写成工厂函数config()的原因。 在Canvas上绘制页面 →
易错点
排版前加载所有字体
排版用浏览器已加载的字体测量文字,并缓存宽度,所以首次构建之后才到的字体会造成断行错误,PDF也不再与屏幕一致。先加载所有字重和样式;有字体迟到时,重新构建前调用clearMeasurementCache()。 排版前加载字体 →
- 在pen里,1.4.1既不报告循环锚点,也不报告悬空锚点。沙盒的“检查”面板会列出页眉、页脚、篇页和各标题层级中的这类问题,但不检查
guides这样的标题样式。钉在一个不存在的#id上的元素会相对容器定位:'below'这类元素边退回到容器左上角(偏移量照算),'top-right'这类容器边也退回到那个角。出现循环时,其中一个元素同样这样退回,其余元素再从它串下去。 - 在1.4.1中,
'align-left'和'align-top'落在同一点:两者都把元素的左上角放在锚点的左上角。 - 边框以框的边缘为中线绘制,所以每条1 pt的粉色边框会超出所描的框0.5 pt,尽管配置文档说描边画在框内。
