Hi there,

Using iText to generate PDF's from coldfusion.  I can add tables, 
paragrpahs and such no problem.  WHen i try to add an image though i keep 
getting a null pointer exception.

Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Code is:

document = CreateObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.Document");
document.init();
// get an outputstream for the PDF Writer
fileIO = CreateObject("java", "java.io.FileOutputStream");

// call the constructor, pass the location where you want
// the pdf to be created

filename = "#DateFormat(now(), 'yyyy-mm-dd')# - 
#str_display.qry_reportInfo.report_name#.pdf";
fileIO.init("D:\Live Sites - EMU - Work On\temp_pdfgen\#filename#");
 
// get a PDF Writer var
writer = CreateObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter");

// call the static 'getInstance' factory method
writer.getInstance(document, fileIO);

// open the document
document.open();

//insert image
png = CreateObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.Image");
png.getInstance("C:\CFusionMX\charting\cache\#image_file#");
document.add(png);

document.close();



All help much appreciated.

Cheers

James
