You assume that all text is in the Content stream. That assumption is wrong. Text can be in an external object. You're not even looking at the XObjects. Also: you can get this from a content stream "12334564738" where: 1 = H 2 = e 3 = l 4 = o 5 = <space> 6 = W 7 = r 8 = d So that the text "12334564738" is rendered as "Hello World". How will you know if you're not looking at the way characters are mapped to glyphs? In short: it's very clear that you haven't looked at the documentation. For instance: you didn't look at this example: http://itextpdf.com/examples/iia.php?id=278 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open source business process management suite built on Java and Eclipse Turn processes into business applications with Bonita BPM Community Edition Quickly connect people, data, and systems into organized workflows Winner of BOSSIE, CODIE, OW2 and Gartner awards http://p.sf.net/sfu/Bonitasoft _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions iText(R) is a registered trademark of 1T3XT BVBA.
