how can I use columnText to append text a document.. I get the following
exception.
com.lowagie.text.DocumentException: Irregular columns are not supported in
composite mode.
at com.lowagie.text.pdf.ColumnText.goComposite(Unknown Source)
at com.lowagie.text.pdf.ColumnText.go(Unknown Source)
at com.lowagie.text.pdf.ColumnText.go(Unknown Source)
for the code below. I created a document before this adn added lot of
content using PdfPTable.
StyleSheet style = new StyleSheet();
style.loadTagStyle("ul", "face", "Times");
style.loadTagStyle("ul", "size", "25px");
style.loadTagStyle("ul", "leading", "15f");
style.loadTagStyle("li", "face", "Times");
style.loadTagStyle("li", "size", "25px");
style.loadTagStyle("li", "leading", "15f");
style.loadTagStyle("p", "face", "Times");
style.loadTagStyle("p", "size", "11px");
style.loadTagStyle("p", "leading", "12f");
style.loadTagStyle("p", "spacingAfter", "6x");
/*
HTMLWorker worker = new HTMLWorker(letterDocument);
worker.setStyleSheet(style);
worker.parse(new StringReader(readyJob.getContent()));
*/
PdfContentByte cb = letterWriter.getDirectContent();
ArrayList arr = HTMLWorker.parseToList(new
StringReader(readyJob.getContent())
,style);
ColumnText ct = new ColumnText(cb);
for (int k = 0; k < arr.size(); ++k){
Element element = (Element)arr.get(k);
if(element instanceof Paragraph){
Paragraph p = (Paragraph)element;
p.setSpacingAfter(6f);
}
ct.addElement(element);
}
ct.go();
