I have some c# code that takes HTML and converts it to PDF. It is not
converting the HTML exactly as it displays in the browser and this is proving
to
be a real headache to fix. Please, any help that you can provide would be of
huge benefit! Here is the code...
string strSOW = "INSERT HTML HERE";
string html = strSOW.Replace(((Char)9).ToString(),
" ").Replace(((Char)160).ToString(),
" ").Replace(@"\r\n", "<br />").Replace(@"<div> </div>", "<br
/>").Replace(@"<ul>", "<br /><ul>");
html = html.Replace("<html>", "<html><body><span
style=\"font-size: 8pt; font-family: Calibri;\"");
html = html.Replace("</html>", "</span></body></html>");
// ParseToList requires a StreamReader instead of just
a
string so just wrap it
using (StringReader sr = new StringReader(html))
{
// Get the raw PdfContentByte object letting us
draw
"above" existing content
PdfContentByte cb = stamper.GetOverContent(1);
// Set the font to Calibri
BaseFont bf =
BaseFont.CreateFont(@"C:\Windows\Fonts\calibri.ttf", BaseFont.CP1257, true);
cb.SetFontAndSize(bf, 8);
// Create a new ColumnText object bound to the
above
PdfContentByte object
ColumnText ct = new ColumnText(cb);
// Get the dimensions of the first page of our
source document
iTextSharp.text.Rectangle page1size =
reader.GetPageSize(1);
// Create a single column object spanning the
entire
page
ct.SetSimpleColumn(40, 210, page1size.Width - 40,
page1size.Height - 210, 0, Element.ALIGN_LEFT);
// Convert the HTML to iTextSharp elements
List<IElement> elements =
iTextSharp.text.html.simpleparser.HTMLWorker.ParseToList(sr, styles);
// Loop through each element
foreach (IElement el in elements)
{
//Add the element to the ColumnText
ct.AddElement(el);
}
// IMPORTANT, this actually commits our object to
the PDF
ct.Go();
}
