Greetings all! I have a question about image sizing inside of PdfPCells.
I have multiple XML docs that I format and merge into a single document.
To facilitate this, I'm using a modified version of
com.lowagie.text.xml.SAXiTextHandler that adds elements to a Vector
rather than directly to the document. This produces a list that I then
loop through to add Elements to the document (Elements are added to a
single PdfPCell that belongs to a table that controls things like
borders and margins). I am having trouble with the size of images as
they are added to the PdfPCell - the images expand to fill the total
width of the table, thus distorting any images that are smaller than the
table's width. I've tried setting the image width manually and
encapsulating the Image within another PdfPTable whose width is set.
Here is the current version of my loop:
// Create a new cell. Write the chunks from the vector
to the cell.
PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell();
for (Iterator i = elementVector.iterator();
i.hasNext();){
Element myElement = (Element)i.next();
// Chunks can't be added directly to a PdfPCell,
so we encapsulate
if (myElement instanceof Chunk) {
cell.addElement(new
Paragraph((Chunk)myElement));
// Handle any images
} else if (myElement instanceof Image) {
PdfPTable imgTable = new PdfPTable(1);
imgTable.setTotalWidth(((Image)myElement).plainWidth());
imgTable.addCell((Image)myElement);
cell.addElement(imgTable);
// All other elements
} else {
cell.addElement(myElement);
}
}
// Add the cell to the table and the table to the
document.
table.addCell(cell);
Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks for your time
and help!!!
Jerry
