Hi
I'm creating a library for generating PDF documents using iText
version 1.3. My requirement is limited to only a few elements such as
tables, images and text.
But the source of the content is XML.
The problem is that I need to position these elements at exact
positions with an exact size. Something I achieve with the
"positioning: absolute; left: 100; top: 100; width: 100; height: 100"
style attributes in HTML. I create DIVs with style attributes similar
to that given above and place the actual elements inside the DIVs. Is
there anything equivalent to the above in iText ?
There is no XML handler in the iText distribution that allows you to add
elements at absolute positions based on attributes or CSS-like styles.
So you'll have to create your own Handler that deals with IMG and DIV
tags and styles with display: inline, block, table, table-row or
table-cell, as well as positioning values.
