RE: [iText-questions] Alignment of transformed text

[Paulo Soares]

Use PdfContentByte.concatCTM() or PdfContentByte.transform() before the beginText(). It may be a good idea to wrap everyting in a saveState()/restoreState().   Best Regards, Paulo Soares From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brandon Goodin Sent: Tuesday, August 24, 2004 10:51 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [iText-questions] Alignment of transformed text I have the following code:   I wish to transform the text using setTextMatrix. But, the matirx is not applied to the showTextAligned. It is only applied when I use the showText(String text);   How can I transform my text with setTextMatrix AND center align it on an x,y coordinate?   xPos = 72 + xOffset; yPos = 556; cb.beginText(); cb.setFontAndSize(barcodeFont, LARGE_FONT_SIZE); cb.setTextMatrix(1.5f,0,0,1.25f,xPos,yPos); cb.showTextAligned(PdfContentByte.ALIGN_CENTER, make3of9(wdc.getHarvestUnit()), xPos, yPos, 0); cb.endText();   Thanks, Brandon
