Hi all,

I saw this message from Somik Raha and I'd like information about how to
unit-test PDF generation with iText (sample of use, ...).

Hi,
     I"ve been using iText for some pdf generation at my workplace, and
its a really good
piece of software. I usually unit-test all of my code, and have developed
(actually still
developing) a simple testing-framework for doing junit testing of pdf
creation logic.

     I have been able to do this primarily because iText has a
html-generation mode. I am
the lead programmer on the htmlparser project
(http://htmlparser.sourceforge.net) - a fast
and simple parser that has been developed for dirty html. Using
htmlparser, I am able to
pick up relevant details of a pdf page from its corresponding html
representation. There are
some things that I am not able to pick up but for the most part - it seems
to be working
fine.

     I was wondering if you are interested in unit-testing capability for
iText - I"d be
glad to check it in.

     Also, htmlparser is a lot faster and far more robust than the other
parsers around - I
saw an effort in trying to convert html pages to pdf. I might be able to
help if the
author/community is interested.

 Regards,
 Somik
