Just wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to my problem. Need help bad.
I will try to explain what my goal is on this project. I am sending values
from text fields from flash to itext processing page to create a pdf. From
flash I know what the X Y coordinates of the text is and I want to place
that text at the same coordinates on the pdf. I am trying to use the code
that I have posted but i keep getting an error when using
Line1.setFontAndSize(newfont, javacast("int", 26));
It says that the method doesnt exist but i know it does. Desperate help is
needed. THANK IN ADVANCE!
