RE: [iText-questions] Question of PDF content generated by iText

This has nothing to do with iText. PDF files are binary. If you want to send them by e-mail you have to mime attach it.

Subject: [iText-questions] Question of PDF content generated by iText

Hi all,

 

I need your great help.

 

Firstly, I generate 2 pdf files by FOP 20.4 each in 1 page, with Asian NLS characters. 

 

Then, I use iText to concat two pdf files into a 2-page pdf.  The file can be opened and viewed with Acrobat reader in Window successfully.

 

However, when I try to send the 2-page pdf via email, the Internet mail gateway blocks the email and says it cannot verify the email content.  This problem doesn't occur when I send the 2 separate 1-page pdf files via email.

 

I understand the problem is dependent on the mail gateway policy.  However, I want to know how (and why) iText will alter the pdf content when merging the pdf files.  And how to prevent it.

 

I originally suspect the problem is due to the second binary comment (some binary characters to indicate the file is in binary format).  However, after I amended the coding to skip this comment, the problem persists.

 

Any comment and help?

 

Thanks

SL

Dear all,

I am using iText to merge two pdf files into one.  However, I don't want to include the second line comment '%����' in the pdf.  Any comment or advice where can I turn off this binary character option?

Thanks for your great help in advance.
