The code attached is used to create the pdf document. The text file I
am reading is a SQL*Plus report with report headings, column heading,
etc.
public class PDF4 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//FileReader fr = null;
BufferedReader br = null;
String str = "";
int c;
//try {
// fr = new FileReader("h:\\mwhite\\pdf2.txt");
// br = new BufferedReader(fr);
//}
try {
Reader in = new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(
"h:\\mwhite\\pdf4.txt"));
while ( (c = in.read()) != -1) {
str = str + ( (char) c);
}
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Cannot read file.");
}
System.out.println("Chapter 1 example 1: Hello World");
// step 1: creation of a document-object
//Document document = new Document();
Document document = new Document(PageSize.LETTER.rotate());
try {
// step 2:
// we create a writer that listens to the document
// and directs a PDF-stream to a file
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new
FileOutputStream("PDF4.pdf"));
// step 3: we open the document
document.open();
// step 4: we add a paragraph to the document
Paragraph p = new Paragraph(str,
FontFactory.getFont(FontFactory.COURIER, 8));
p.setAlignment(p.ALIGN_CENTER);
document.add(p);
//document.add(new
Paragraph(str,FontFactory.getFont(FontFactory.COURIER, 8)));
}
catch (DocumentException de) {
System.err.println(de.getMessage());
}
catch (IOException ioe) {
System.err.println(ioe.getMessage());
}
// step 5: we close the document
document.close();
}
}

Maybe if you tell us what's the text format, where it comes from, what
font and size are you using, how are you putting the text in the pdf
then, and only then, will you get a better answer.
