iText can only place the image as-is. It will still have 1000x1000 and it won't be sub-sampled to be smaller or to fit your desidered dpi. In other words, the decode/encode to jpeg must be done somewhere else.

Subject: [iText-questions] Most efficient way to draw image


I'm trying to learn the best method to draw a JPG image using the stamper. I
need a method like this:
public void drawMyImage (PdfStamper stamper, String imageFileName,
PdfRectangle rect, float quality, int dpi) {
// ???
}
The imageFileName represents a high-resolution JPG on disk. It is usually a
very large image (1000x1000 or more). It will be drawn into a relatively
small space on the PDF, like 1x1 inch.
I want to draw the image on the over content using the position and size of
the rectangle at the specified quality (0 to 1). I'm not sure if the DPI
argument is needed.  The image in the PDF should be decoded with the
DCTDecode filter.  I've tried several variations, and all I get is a white
rectangle (without the image).
Help? Thanks.
David
