Can someone explain how to use HtmlWorker and ColumnText?
> PdfContentByte cb = pdfWriter.getDirectContent();
>
> ColumnText ct = new ColumnText(cb);
> ct.setSimpleColumn(...);
> ct.setYLine(...);
> if (list != null) {
> for (int i=0; i < list.size(); i++) {
> ct.addElement((Element)list.get(i));
> }
> }
> ct.go();
I'm using vb.net so here is my code
Private sub useHtmlWorker()
Dim document As New Document(PageSize.A4)
Dim fs As New System.IO.FileStream(System.IO.Path.GetTempPath
& "itext5.pdf", IO.FileMode.Create)
Dim pdfWriter As iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfWriter =
iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfWriter.GetInstance(document, fs)
document.Open()
Dim style As html.simpleparser.StyleSheet = createStyleSheet()
Dim sr As System.IO.StreamReader = System.IO.File.OpenText
(System.IO.Path.GetTempPath & "oc2.htm")
Dim list As ArrayList = html.simpleparser.HTMLWorker.ParseToList(sr, style)
Dim cb As iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfContentByte = pdfWriter.DirectContent
Dim ct As New iTextSharp.text.pdf.ColumnText(cb)
ct.SetSimpleColumn(document.Left, 0, document.Right, 24)
ct.YLine = 1
If Not list Is Nothing Then
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To list.Count - 1
ct.AddElement(CType(list.Item(i), IElement))
ct.Go()
ct.YLine += 1
Next
End If
sr.Close()
document.Close()
End Sub
If I move the ct.Yline += 1 and/or the ct.Go lines around (remove yline, move
go outside of loop like you had, I get that the document has no pages. as it
is, my lines are written on top of each other; some of them are fine though.)
I'd appreciate any pointers, thanks so much!
