I spent my last two nights looking for a solution in the PDF Reference, so please no more hide&seek games.
I can't even give you an estimation of the number of nights I have spent on iText for free over the past seven years, so tell me: why should I spend time on your question? *LOL*
I just thought there might be something special for inserting a reference to a dictionary value.
I don't use these methods that change PdfDictionary entries a lot, so I have to consult the API docs myself whenever I need them: http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/docs/com/lowagie/text/pdf/PdfReader.html There are some getObject methods that return a PdfObject: http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/docs/com/lowagie/text/pdf/PdfObject.html One of the possible object types is PdfDictionary: http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/docs/com/lowagie/text/pdf/PdfDictionary.html there's a get(PdfName key) method to get the value corresponding with a certain key (for instance the /Type key). There's also a method put(PdfName key, PdfObject value) to change the value of a dictionary entry.
But if not, disregard this part of my question - I can handle it as soon as I know the right PDF syntax.
I forgot what you needed this for, but didn't Paulo gave you a solution for the problem you tried to solve. If you don't know PDF syntax, don't use the methods I just pointed you too. Use the example provided by Paulo. br, Bruno ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
