Thanks for clearing that up. Seems I might be closer. The cleaned up code is
below
public class FormPdfView extends AbstractPdfView {
protected void buildPdfDocument(Map model, Document document, PdfWriter
writer, HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException,
IOException {
PdfFormModel pdfFormModel = (PdfFormModel)
model.get("pdfFormModel");
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
String readPdf =
"C:\\TRMWorkspace\\ClearView\\WebContent\\WEB-INF\\resources\\forms\\CAI0708.pdf";
String result =
"C:\\TRMWorkspace\\ClearView\\WebContent\\WEB-INF\\resources\\forms\\ENABLED_CAI.07.10.08.pdf";
try {
// Step A document stamping
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(readPdf);
System.out.println("Pdf Version:
"+reader.getPdfVersion());
System.out.println("Num of Pages: "+
reader.getNumberOfPages());
System.out.println("File Length:
"+reader.getFileLength());
System.out.println("Encrypted: "+reader.isEncrypted());
// Step B document stamping
PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, bos);
// Step C document stamping
AcroFields form = stamper.getAcroFields();
form.setField("fullName", "Blackie Lawless");
form.setField("representativeName", "Rob Halford");
// Step D document stamping
stamper.close();
response.setContentType("application/pdf");
response.setContentLength(bos.size());
response.setHeader("Expires", "0");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "must-revalidate,
post-check=0,
pre-check=0");
response.setHeader("Pragma", "public");
ServletOutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();
bos.writeTo(out);
out.flush();
} catch (DocumentException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
On IE6 I get garbage displayed on the screen, FF3 the pdf is returned
(Yay!). But still getting the The document has no pages error. What special
needs to be done for pdf to display with IE6? What could be causing the
error?
Thanks for help!
