HTMLWorker is to be used with ColumnText. It uses auto-leading that the plain document.add() doesn't support.

Subject: [iText-questions] HtmlWorker - <p> tag

Hello,

 

I'm experiencing problems converting paragraph "<p>" tags to pdf. The text, when converted to PDF, appears all on the same line for paragraphs. If the paragraph spans multiple lines the text wraps and starts overwriting on the same line that the previous text was on. If I change the paragraph tags to "<br>" tags, then proper paragraphs are created but then obviously loose the paragraph properties (i.e. align="right").

 

I downloaded the latest code as of Nov 16th and am still experiencing this. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this or knows a work around. I have taken a quick glance at the HtmlWorker source and it seems at the highlevel that its calling FractoryProperties and using the standard iText Paragraph(() so I'm not sure what would be causing it to overwrite on the same line without delving deeper.

 

The following is the sample HTML that I am using for testing this. I'm not sure how this mailing list would handle html (i.e. interpret or spit out raw... presuming it would be raw but just in case I have left out the angle brackets and replaced them with quotes ).

 

"html"

"body"

"p" This is a sample paragraph that spans multiple lines but wraps over the same line there blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah "/p"

"ul"

"li" test list item1 "/li"

"li" test list item2 "/li"
"/ul"

"/body"

"/html"

 

 

If you need more info feel free to contact me. Thx for any help you can provide.
