Hi All
I use iText to generate dynamically the PDF which works good. I did generate
some PDFs with the barcodes on it.
I am trying to scale the barcode to different pre-defined Standard scale
sizes as follows:
Scale Area Width Height
SC0 (81.8%) 0.27 30.50 x 21.48
SC1 (90%) 0.297 33.56 x 23.34
SC2 (100%) 0.33 37.29 x 25.93
SC3 (110%) 0.363 41.02 x 28.52
SC4 (120%) 0.396 44.75 x 31.12
SC5 (135%) 0.445 50.34 x 35.01
SC6 (150%) 0.495 55.94 x 38.90
SC7 (165%) 0.544 61.53 x 42.78
SC8 (185%) 0.610 68.99 x 47.97
SC9 (200%) 0.66 74.58 x 51.86
I assume this must be a simple task to scale a barcode and I found the
method to set the width and height BarcodeEAN.setX() and
BarcodeEAN.setBarHeight() but unfortunately it is not working how I expect
to be. The code is as follows:
BarcodeEAN codeEAN = new BarcodeEAN();
float width = 30.50f;
float height = 21.48f;
float convertedWidthInInches = 1.200785f;
//float convertedHeightInInches =0.8456676f;
codeEAN.setX(convertedWidth);
codeEAN.setBarHeight(height);
codeEAN.setCode(appendedString); //this is to set code for barcode
Image image = codeEAN.createImageWithBarcode(_pdfWriter
.getDirectContent(), null, null);
return image;
When I change the width and height in the above code, for example the 100%
scale(37.29f x 25.93f) is slightly bigger than the 200%scale(74.58f x
51.86f). To put simple, there is no difference at all :-(!
I looked into the API of BarcodeEAN but there is not so much of information
Anyone know where I am wrong? Thank you in advance.
Kind Regards
Kris
