I am using the Itext java lib for scaling the pdf. For that i use PdfWriter
to get the page which is then treated as image instance and scaled and
finally added to PdfContentByte. But this final Pdf do not contain the text
box. If i use pdfCopy , then i will not be able to scale the pdf.
Is my understanding correct ? I have attached the original PDF (TextBox.pdf)
and the generated pdf(final.pdf) where u can observe that the top-left text
box is missing. Is there any way i can achieve scaling and adding of form
fields. Similarly , some hidden fields are getting visible . Please find the
sample code below:
pdfWriter = PdfWriter.getInstance(pdfDocument,new
FileOutputStream("C:/TextBox.pdf"));
pdfDocument.open();
pdfDirectContent = pdfWriter.getDirectContent();
page = pdfWriter.getImportedPage(reader1, pageN);
image = Image.getInstance(page);
image.scalePercent(xx); // xx is % value
image.setAbsolutePosition(0, 0);
pdfDirectContent.addImage(image);
