The code I posted before was not the code, that led to the error message
I posted before (as pdf cannot be accessed through Image.getInstance).
I try to wrap the pdf (cover.pdf) into an Image Object by using my
function createTemplateImage.
When I add this image to the PdfContentByte under, opening the resulting
PDF File with Acrobat Reader gives me the error message "There was an
error processing a page. There was a problem reading this document.(18)".
Here the code (without exception handling and comments):
public static File getComponent(BaseFont stdTextFont, BaseFont
stdExtraFont, File pageTemplate) {
Image templateImage = createTemplateImage("/tmp/cover.pdf");
templateImage.setAbsolutePosition(200,400);
File contentFile = createTitle(stdTextFont, stdExtraFont);
PdfReader templateReader = new PdfReader(contentFile.toString());
File pdfTempFile = File.createTempFile("pdf-title-", ".pdf");
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(pdfTempFile);
PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(templateReader,fos);
PdfContentByte under = stamper.getUnderContent(1);
under.addImage(templateImage);
stamper.setFormFlattening(true);
stamper.setRotateContents(false);
stamper.close();
}
private static Image createTemplateImage(File pageTemplate){
PdfReader templateReader = new PdfReader(pageTemplate.toString());
File pdfTempFile = File.createTempFile("pdf-background-", ".pdf");
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(pdfTempFile);
PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(templateReader,fos);
PdfImportedPage importedTemplate =
stamper.getImportedPage(templateReader, 1);
Image templateImage = Image.getInstance(importedTemplate);
templateReader.close();
fos.close();
return templateImage;
}
What am I doing wrong?
Best regards,
Joern
