Hi,
I'm a new user of iText. I want to build a PDF with text in a absolute
possition to the margin of the page (in this case, the margin is 0). I'm using
the follow:
cb.moveText(85f, (PageSize.A4.height() - 99f));
cb.showText("Fagor");
cb.moveText(85f, (PageSize.A4.height() -
133f)); cb.showText("XML394");
cb.moveText(28f, (PageSize.A4.height() -
198f)); cb.showText("-");
cb.moveText(14f, (PageSize.A4.height() -
382f)); cb.showText("25€");
cb.moveText(141f, (PageSize.A4.height() -
382f)); cb.showText("345€");
(cb is a PDFContentByte object)
But when I run the program, in the PDF generated, I only can see the
first line (Fagor).... Anyboy can help me?
With moveText, you insert a Td operator.
In the PDF Reference Manual, Td is explained like this:
Move to the start of the next line, offset from the start of the current
line by
(tx , ty ). tx and ty are numbers expressed in unscaled text space units.
See also:
http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/docs/com/lowagie/text/pdf/PdfContentByte.html#moveText(float,%20float)
So Fagor is printed at the correct location, but all the rest is added
almost
a pageheight lower (thus falling off the page). You should use an x and an y
that are relative to the position of Fagor instead of absolute coordinates.
