I am new to iText and have just received the book. So the idea of replacing
text is abandoned. I am going to plan B :), which is the user creating a
field in a tool like Acrobat.
I know iText can get and set a lot of information on fields. What I couldn't
find is a method to set tracking
1) Is it possible inside a field's content to set the kerning between
characters ?
2) How is tracking done? Do I have to write code to adjust the kerning
between the characters using *setKerning(int, int,
int)*<http://api.itextpdf.com/com/itextpdf/text/pdf/TrueTypeFont.html#setKerning%28int,%20int,%20int%29>?
Is there any example in the book (I looked in the index and could't
find
anything that mentioned how to do tracking)
Thanks again.
