Hi, I am new here. I hope this is the rigth way of sending a question about iText...
I just started using the iText API and i think it's really good and useful. I wrote a litte app that reads from a PDF-file, adds a comment and writes everything into a new PDF-file. I am using "writer.getDirectContentUnder", but the rectangles i draw appear over the text. what's wrong in my app?? here most of my programm: /* * --> Copyright 2002 by Bruno Lowagie <-- * with help of 'iText Tutorial' at http://www.lowagie.com/iText/tutorial/ * [EMAIL PROTECTED] */ import java.io.*; import com.lowagie.text.*; import com.lowagie.text.pdf.*; public class AddContentToPDF { public static void main(String[] args) { try { PdfReader reader = new PdfReader("oldFileReader.pdf"); int n = reader.getNumberOfPages(); Rectangle psize = reader.getPageSize(1); Document document = new Document(psize); //das neue Dokument soll dieselbe Gr��e haben PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("newFileAddContent.pdf")); document.open(); PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContentUnder();//should write UNDER the Text int i = 0; while (i < n) { document.newPage(); i++; PdfImportedPage curPage = writer.getImportedPage(reader, i); cb.addTemplate(curPage, 0 , 0); cb.setRGBColorStroke(0,255,0); cb.setRGBColorFill(255,0,0); //this does't seem to work either cb.rectangle(200,500,90,30); //appears ON TOP OF the text cb.stroke(); document.add(new Annotation(200f, 500f, 290f, 530f, "http://www.SPORT1.de";)); } document.close(); } catch (Exception de) { de.printStackTrace(); } } } ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions
