I assume you are Geertjan, the developer of the NetBeans module
that converts Java source code to PDF. What principle do you use?
If you put the flat source code file inside a Paragraph and add this
paragraph to a document object, it is evident that the syntax will not
be colored: it's just plain text; if you open it in Notepad, it won't be
colored either.
However, I suppose that NetBeans parses the source file and writes
everything to a Graphics2D object in different colors. I don't know
if it's possible, but if you could redirect this to an iText PdfGraphics2D
object, you could let NetBeans do the coloring...
Otherwise, there is no other way than to parse the source code files
yourself and apply the colors yourself.
