Anyone have any quick code samples on howto create Outlines(bookmarks) in
iText? I see there is a PdfOutline class, but on every call to the PdfCopy.add
() method requires a PdfOutline Object which in turn is instantiated through
specifying:
1) a PdfOutline parent Object
2) PdfDestination or
Does it happen with all the clients? iText doesn't do linearizing and that
means that all the pdf must be read before displaying. If the font's are
embedded the problem must be with the client, maybe the plug-in.

Hoi,
yes, it does happen with all clients. the plug-in is adobe acrobat 5.0 and
the platform is WXP as well as W2K.

Make sure the Acrobat version is 5.05. Prior versions have all kind of
problems with fonts.

Currently the only to do what you want is to place the pages in a new

iText supports AFM/PFB fonts. Remember you customer that if Adobe issued
those patches was because the Acrobat version was buggy. Tailoring the PDF

The font has a table bug. I've fixed iText to work with this kind of broken
fonts. If you want to try, replace in TrueTypeFont.java:
HashMap readFormat4() throws IOException {
HashMap h = new HashMap();
int table_lenght = rf.readUnsignedShort();
rf.skipBytes(2);

Another nice feature would be the possibility to parse a CSS into
a TagMap object.
I've been thinking about CSS stuff - but for a future project...
This looks interesting:

Of course you can have pages of different sizes in one document.

It's it actually 5.0, or is it 5.0.5 or 5.1?
It is Reader or the full Acrobat or both?
Does the browser matter (IE vs. NS)?

Have you tried it? If your printer driver sends the
sizes your printer may be able to figure it out. For
example, I think there is a better than 50% chance
that an HP-LaserJet could do it, assuming the physical
printer is set up to know what types of paper are in
it.

There's a difference. PdfCopy creates a new document by concatenating full
pages. A regular PdfWriter creates a blank page and the imported page is
placed as a template. If you don't have annotations the final result is the
