Ok, I am a little bit of an idiot. I did find how to search the list, and saw that this question has come up quite frequently.
However, I did not really understand the answer. The main suggestion that I saw was to put the table of contents at the end of the document, and then rearrange the pages to put it at the beginning once you are done. This implies to me that things are not being written to the output stream "as you go", but instead are saved up in memory and then flushed to the stream at some later time, perhaps when the document is closed. For a large document, this could be problematic, because everything has to fit in memory at once. Am I understanding this correctly? Are there ways to limit the amount of memory required, e.g. by flushing to the stream at an earlier time? Thanks for any advice. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions
