Any idea from someone ?
Maybe there another way to create this title bar that could work ?
Thanks
Manuel

Objet : [iText-questions] Problème with image and text
Hi,
I'm trying to write a text over images to create a kind of title bar.
I though I fond a way but this is only working on the first page.
On the subsequent page, the images and text are messed up (shifted
down)
once I add a paragraph between the title bars.
With no text, there's no shift at all ....
Here is my java code :
package personnal.blogprinter;
[truncated imports ...]
public class PdfTest {
private static final int DEFAULT_MARGIN = 50;
private static final String TITLE_RIGHT_CORNER =
"title-right-corner.gif";
private static final String TITLE_BACKGROUND =
"title-background.gif";
private static final String TITLE_LEFT_CORNER =
"title-left-corner.gif";
private static final Font POST_TITLE_FONT = new
Font(Font.HELVETICA, 17, Font.BOLD, Color.WHITE);
@Test
public void testCreatePdf() throws GenerationException {
File outputFile = new File("target", "test.pdf");
Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4,
DEFAULT_MARGIN, DEFAULT_MARGIN, DEFAULT_MARGIN, DEFAULT_MARGIN);
try {
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new
FileOutputStream(outputFile));
document.open();
addTitle("My incredible title", document);
// Uncomment here to create the shift
//document.add(new Paragraph("Test"));
document.newPage();
addTitle("My other incredible title",
document);
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new GenerationException("Can't add
image", e);
} catch (DocumentException e) {
throw new GenerationException("Can't add
title", e);
} finally {
document.close();
}
}
private void addTitle(String title, Document document)
throws BadElementException, IOException,
DocumentException {
Image cornerImg = getImage(TITLE_LEFT_CORNER);
document.add(new Chunk(cornerImg, 0, -5));
Image bgImg = getImage(TITLE_BACKGROUND);
bgImg.scaleAbsoluteWidth(475);
document.add(new Chunk(Image.getInstance(bgImg), 0,
-5));
Image flipedCornerImg = getImage(TITLE_RIGHT_CORNER);
document.add(new Chunk(flipedCornerImg, 0, -5));
Chunk titleChunk = new Chunk(" "+title,
POST_TITLE_FONT);
document.add(titleChunk);
document.add(Chunk.NEWLINE);
}
protected Image getImage(String imageFilename) throws
BadElementException, IOException {
URL cornerImgUrl =
Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader()
.getResource(imageFilename);
return Image.getInstance(cornerImgUrl);
}
}
I've also attached 2 resulting pdf file : one with no shift (but no
text) and the other with text and shift ...
I don't understand what's going on ....
Regards,
Manuel
