Why would you want to create a PdfTemplate without a writer? That's like creating a single page PDF. Creating a single page PDF from an existing PDF is possible using iText, but it has some serious downsides in comparison with using PdfTemplate + a writer (bad resources management is the major downside). You should know more about PDF before I can give a better answer. Honestly: this is a pointless discussion. It's like asking "why is the sky blue?" without knowing anything about the breaking index of light that shines to a medium. -- This answer is provided by 1T3XT BVBA http://www.1t3xt.com/ - http://www.1t3xt.info ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.itextpdf.com/book/ Check the site with examples before you ask questions: http://www.1t3xt.info/examples/ You can also search the keywords list: http://1t3xt.info/tutorials/keywords/
