Hi,

A PDF is not a browser, while creating your HTML you should still bare in mind that the end result will be a PDF.

Couple tips:
It's better to write measures in points (pt). Then no conversion is done by the XMLWorker. It's a good idea to check the supported tags (in the documentation or inside com.itextpdf.tool.xml.html.Tags there are the defaults listed). The <font> tag, used in the htmlfile, is not supported, that is why among others the 'Test' text is not there. You can easily write a TagProcessor that does support the font tag as you see fit. If I'm correct it is better to define a width for your tables, then the XMLWorker does not have to try and fit text in it. Nesting tables is possible, but it makes it harder for XMLWorker to fit tables on the page.

Balder

Hi,

Thanks for the links Balder.

I tried to render the enclosed html file to pdf and I did not get a good result. Please check the attachments.

I used this code snippet:

        Document document = new Document(PageSize.LETTER);
PdfWriter instance = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("/home/mramos/html3.pdf"));
        document.open();
        FileReader br = new FileReader("/home/mramos/pdf_cfadmin2.html");
        XMLWorkerHelper worker = XMLWorkerHelper.getInstance();
        worker.parseXHtml(instance, document, br);
        document.close();

Any help is much appreciated.


Many thanks!
