Hello,
I have a program that splits up a single .txt file into separate files (one per sales rep). The original text file has a layout that used to be printed on wide tractor feed paper. I am saving these output files as .doc's. My only problem is that, when our sales reps open these, they have to set the page orientation to landscape, put the font to 8pt, and view at 150% and then it looks perfect. Is there any way to automatically save this way from c++? I will attach my code below just in case.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <sstream>
using namespace std;
string getInFile();
void printProgHeading();
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
printProgHeading();
string filName = getInFile();
ifstream inFile (filName.c_str());
ofstream *outFile = NULL;
int numFiles = 0;
string line = "";
string placeHolder = "";
bool isHeaderLine = false;
int wordCount = 0;
string currSalesman = "";
if (inFile.is_open()){
system("mkdir splits");
while (! inFile.eof()){
getline (inFile,line);
isHeaderLine = false;
wordCount = 0;
istringstream iss(line);
string token;
while(getline(iss, token, ' ')){
if(token!=" " and token != "") {
if(token=="Salesman") {
isHeaderLine = true;
}
if(isHeaderLine){
wordCount++;
if (wordCount == 6){
if (token != currSalesman) {
currSalesman = token;
token = "splits/" + token + ".rtf";
cout << "Creating file " << token << endl;
outFile = new ofstream(token.c_str());
}
}
}
}
}
if(outFile != NULL) *outFile << line << endl;
}
inFile.close();
}
else{
cout << "Unable to open file\n";
}
system("PAUSE");
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
string getInFile(){
string subString1 = "type ";
string subString2 = " > ";
string subString3 = "c.txt";
string subString4 = ".txt";
string filName = "";
string finalString = "";
cout << "Enter file name: ";
cin >> filName;
finalString = subString1 + filName + subString4 + subString2 + filName + subString3;
cout << "Running operation: " << finalString << endl << endl;
cout << "Please be patient while file is being converted from unicode..." << endl;
system (finalString.c_str());
cout << "File conversion complete." << endl << endl;
cout << "Please hold while files are being created." << endl << endl;
filName = filName + subString3;
return filName;
}
void printProgHeading(){
cout << "****************************************************************\n"
<< "** Author: David MacKay **\n"
<< "** ~Program splits the Follow-Up Review Report into separate **\n"
