Because iText does not handle conversion of html text, I have been using
HTMLdoc to convert html text stored in a database to PDF. This worked fine
for creating pdf representaions of individual data rows. I simply write the
data to an HTML file then use HTMLDoc to convert it to PDF.
I am now attempting to build a book of this data using Chapters, Paragraphs
and Sections. I've been able to build the outline of the book but now have a
problem. I need add the pdf to a Section. The following code adds the actual
html text to a Section.
String title = row.getData("SectionTitle").getString();
Paragraph pTitle = new Paragraph(title, sectionFont);
Section subsection = section.addSection(1,pTitle, 1);
// SectionInfo contains HTML text
if(!row.getData("SectionInfo").getString().trim().equals(""))
{
// This line adds the text but thats not what I really
want
Section info = new
Paragraph(row.getData("SectionInfo").getString());
// This is what I want to do
// This is where I would create a PDF Document out of
the text
//
/*
// I can create an htmlfile
String filename = createHTMLFile(row);
// I can convert it to a pdf using HTMLDoc
String pdfFile = toPDF(filename);
// I can read the pdf
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(pdfFile);
int n = reader.getNumberOfPages();
int i = 0;
while (i < n) {
i++;
PdfImportedPage page1 =
writer.getImportedPage(reader,
i);
// Here is where I stuck !!!!
// How do I add the pages to the
section?
}
*/
}
catch (Exception de) {
de.printStackTrace();
}
subsection.add(info);
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
