I have had excellent success using JPedal for PDF conversion to Graphics2D.
I also had the opportunity to work with their support team on a buggy PDF and they fixed the bug and sent me an updated binary. This was all for the FREE version. I look forward to being able to purchase the full version. They seem to be a good company to work with. -Bill Ensley www.bearprinting.com -----Original Message----- From: Bruno Lowagie [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 17, 2009 1:21 AM To: Post all your questions about iText here Subject: Re: [iText-questions] iText Document to Graphics2D Dan Dubois wrote: > Just looked at the source code and see the /p /h arguments that allow > Acrobat Reader to print silently probably won't work on Preview.

There are printers able to print PDF directly, but you shouldn't count on that. Printing is discussed briefly in chapter 18 of the book, but I think the safest way to do it in Java, is to use a library/product that renders the PDF. In the book, I mention JPedal (IDR Solutions). Meanwhile there's also PDFRenderer (SUN). br, Bruno ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php Check the site with examples before you ask questions: http://www.1t3xt.info/examples/ You can also search the keywords list: http://1t3xt.info/tutorials/keywords/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php Check the site with examples before you ask questions: http://www.1t3xt.info/examples/ You can also search the keywords list: http://1t3xt.info/tutorials/keywords/
