Hi,
Thanks for all your quick responses!
I didn't have access to the request object because I packaged all the iText
code in a separate .jar file for reuse.
I solved the problem a bit like you suggest, I added a String parameter to
the interface that specifies the location of the /images directory.
Although the image for the pdf is used only in the PDF I would prefer the
include the image in the .jar file.
If I would try to do Image.getInstance("\\web-inf\\resources\logo.gif
<file:///\\web-inf\resources\logo.gif> ") would it look in the root of the
.jar file? I'm gonna try that.
Anyway, this is not really an iText issue, but thank for your help!
Bruno,
Merci voor het voorstel :-) Maar ik red het wel. En ik werk trouwens niet in
het technicum, maar op de zuiderpoort.
Tot ik je es tegen het lijf loop! :-)
Greetings,
Kristof.

Subject: Re: [iText-questions] including images in pdf in web application
if you want to put an image on your pdf, you have to do something like this:
String path = request.getContextPath();
String split_path[] = path.split("/");
path = request.getRealPath(split_path[0]);
String nof="\\WEB-INF\\RESOURCES\logo.gif";
Image jpeg=null;
try
{
jpeg = Image.getInstance(path+nof);
jpeg.setAlignment(Image.LEFT);
doc.add(jpeg);
}
catch(Exception e) { System.out.println(e);}

Can you open the file logo.jpg using nothing more
than java.io.* classes? I'm 99% sure the problem
is not iText related.

We have the same employer (at least as long as the
decision to move to SAP Campus Management isn't final).
Ik zit op DICT, maar ik kan gerust eens op mijn fiets
springen en naar het technicum komen om te helpen.
best regards,
Bruno
