I
won't pretent to be an expert in this area, but it sounds alot like something is
not getting closed out, or reset at the end of
your
first run. Then, when the second runs, it is using stale data of some
sort, you might try various out prints to see
if you
are getting something odd.
Perhaps some resource is not getting set again on the
second attempt?
I
assume that all subsequent attempts create the same problem?
If you
want to send me some code, I will look at it.
It
seems that we are both working on similar projects.
I too
am returning a PDF with images back to my user for proofing
purposes.

I'm using the outputstream in my servlet, and
calling another class to actually create the pdf's into a
bytearrayoutputstream.
Servlet code snippet:
OutputStream out =
res.getOutputStream();
CreatePDF createPDF = new
CreatePDF();
out = createPDF.Create(path, allUploadedData, parseFile.getWhichDocument(),
out);
out.close();

adding images to a pdf
Are you getting no image or no data in an empty image? do you
have Adobe Acrobat? if you do, you can use it to see if the image is not
getting written, or if it is getting
written only with empty data.
Hope this helps better

Bill, Thanks for the suggestion. I
tried this and it didn't work. When I click back, I then click
submit again to call the servlet and it does call it successfully and
everything else prints fine, except the image. It seems like that
may be the right mode of thinking though, because the first time I run
this I get the image, everytime thereafter I do not.
Here's the code I entered into my servlet
(already had the response coming in):
res.addHeader("Pragma",
"No-cache");
res.addHeader("Cache-Control",
"no-cache");
res.addDateHeader("Expires", 1);
Thanks,
Eric

Problem adding images to a pdf
Back and Forward buttons on a browser to not automatically
re-load a page from the server.
I solved this problem by adding a no-caching value into the
request header.
HttpServletResponse response =
(HttpServletResponse)pageContext.getResponse();
response.addHeader("Pragma",
"No-cache");
response.addHeader("Cache-Control",
"no-cache");
response.addDateHeader("Expires",
1);
hope this helps

Hello, I am trying to add an image to a
pdf, it seems to work the first time, but if I choose the back button
on my browser and try again it's not there. Its a variable image
that is different based on who is creating the pdf. Any
suggestions?
Here's my code:
if (printSignature) {
Image jpg = Image.getInstance(path + "/bar/signatures/" + signature +
".jpg");
jpg.setAbsolutePosition(88,
20);
cb.addImage(jpg);
//cb.addImage(jpg,
176, 0, 0, 20, 88, 20);
}
Thanks,
Eric
