[iText-questions] Converting *to* itext from existing html
Good morning/afternoon/evening, not being the programmer myself, but merely the one who just subscribed to the mailinglist in order to post the question, plse bear with me. Situation: an existing web-application using server-side Java, generating HTML output that gets printed afterwards. Not identical on all types of browsers, so the conversion to PDF is (one of ?) the correct solution(s). AFAIU, the idea would be to describe the lay-out of the page(s) in i-text format, and later on, using a different writer, generating html or pdf. Don't hesitate to correct me when wrong. Question: is there something that can at least roughly convert existing html code to the i-text format ? Being an illiterate, it looks rather obvious to me, that we're not the first being confronted with this. Since itext describes a document, just as HTML up to a certain level, there should be some similarities, that might be convert-able ? Sure, for employment POV, the best solution is to start from scratch, but is there a one-to-best solution, being able to use this approach as a jumpstart ? thx in advance, kr= - Take Surveys.

Re: [iText-questions] problem with page break
hi, thanks for your answer, but looking into the methods i found
setKeepTogether
table.setKeepTogether(true);
and it seems working perfectly.
Thanks anyway,
CB
2007/3/2, Paulo Soares [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
You only have a table with several cells, they will break as needed. to
do wjat you want put each of your blocks in a table and put each of this
tables in a cell in an outer table. Make the outer table
setSplitLate(true).

Subject: [iText-questions] problem with page break
Hi all,
i have to print the result of a report in a pdf file. each
row from the database is put in a PdfPtable, and this is my
code, but it occurs a page break during the print that breaks
some of the tables :(
at start i have an image:
PdfWriter.getInstance(document,
response.getOutputStream());
document.open();
...
Image logo = Image.getInstance(finalPath);
logo.setAlignment(Image.TEXTWRAP | Image.ALIGN_CENTER);
logo.setIndentationRight(10.0f);
document.add(logo);
for each result
{
// Aggiungo la tabella con i dati estratti
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(2);
setTable(table, 30, 70, 100f);
table.addCell();
PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell(new Paragraph());
cell.setBorderColor(Color.WHITE);
cell.setBorder(0);
cell.setMinimumHeight(50f);
table.addCell(cell);
table.getDefaultCell().setBorderWidth(0);
table.getDefaultCell ().setBorder(0);
table.addCell(N.);
table.addCell(ID_ANNO + / + ID_PROGR);
table.addCell(Data Arrivo);
table.addCell(DATA_ARRIVO);
table.addCell(Provenienza);
table.addCell(MITTENTE);
table.addCell(Oggetto);
table.addCell(OGGETTO);
table.addCell(Pubbl. per Giorni);
table.addCell(NUMERO_GIORNI_1 + dal +
(String)IP1 + al + (String)FP1);
if (!IP2.equals()) {
table.addCell();
table.addCell (e per giorni + NUMERO_GIORNI_2
+ dal + (String)IP2 + al + (String)FP2);
}
table.addCell();
table.addCell();
table.addCell();
table.addCell();
table.addCell();
table.addCell();
table.addCell(MESSO);
cell = new PdfPCell(new Paragraph(( + MESSO_NOME + )));
cell.setBorderColor(Color.WHITE);
cell.setBorder(0);
cell.setMinimumHeight(50f);
cell.setHorizontalAlignment(Element.ALIGN_CENTER);
cell.setVerticalAlignment (Element.ALIGN_TOP);
table.addCell(cell);
document.add(table);
}
document.close();
i know the code isn't so clean as it should be (sorry :P),
but what i'm doing is just using pdfptables and nothing more
(as i've seen i should do in the tutorials/mail.list)... am i
missing anything?
i also attach the document for you
Thanks

iText does not do this.

I need to do something like with the images, that is, I need to find one or more specific image and replace to another one. I need to do this because I work with VDP (Variable Data Print) and the designers creates the documents in PDF format and then we generate the final document to print based on our database.

You have made the choice to make an XFA form. Either you accept the consequences of this choice and stop working with FDF. (Ask yourself: why do I need FDF?) Or you return to using AcroForms. This means you create your forms with Acrobat WITHOUT using LiveCylce Designer. Also specify how form flatterring (creating pdf form after processing) will be done in this case. This question contains a contradiction. When you flatten a form, the form disappears. However, you talk about 'creating pdf form after processing'. I have no idea what you mean by this.

[iText-questions] Two rendition
Hello, Is it possible to put two rendition in a same screen annotation. I want to simulate a sound annotation with a screen annotation. First I'll put a rendition with the image of a sound annotation and then put an audio/wav rendition. Is it possible? Another solution is to put two screen annotation on the same coordinate. And last one (if both solution above does not work) changing the appearance stream (key AP of the annotation). But this last is quite hard to perform since it includes many features.

[iText-questions] Wide table.
Hi, I'am new in iText and my task is to create report table. In the table there is about 20 columns ant total of columns width is greater then page width. I need to split the row. Itext enables splitting rows to new page, but I need to split row into two subrows on the same page. Using nested table in cell is not acceptable, as far as the widths of columns are different. Is there in iText any trick to do this ? Thanks for help. Bohumír Sýkora - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[iText-questions] meta info not filled in when using PDFCopy
I have been trying to fill in the meta information (e.g. title, subject, author) into an iText generated PDF which was created using PDFCopy to merge multiple PDFs together. This method is very similar to that referenced at http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/tutorial/general/copystamp/index.html -- which you can see in http://itext.ugent.be/library/com/lowagie/examples/general/copystamp/Concatenate.java I have tried add the meta information to the document using the document.addTitle, .addSubject, etc. functions. However, these functions never seem to actually set the PDF meta attributes. The fields are always left blank. Suggestions? - Finding fabulous fares is fun. Let Yahoo!

Re: [iText-questions] Paragraph FirstLineIndent
Paulo Soares psoares at consiste.pt writes: This is another thing, there's a reason why quoting is good to know what we're talking about. A \n is equivalent to starting a new Paragraph and will always indent. Why is this Paulo? Can this be changed? If I submit a change, could it be reviewed and possibly be merged into the iTextSharp base (I have a change that works for my needs)? I am really looking for a first line indent that only indents the first actual line and not any additional text following a \n in the paragraph -- as anything following a \n is no longer the first line. If you don't want indentation you'll have to look for the \n and create a new Paragraph without indentation for the subsequent sections. My current implementation of iTextSharp using the ColumnText model won't allow for this and so I am looking for another option. If worse came to worse, I would have to do a lot of rework, but if it can't be helped... Let me know what you think.

[iText-questions] Add an annotation on page 2
Hello,
I Have implemented a function to add a screen annotation with an appearance
stream.
My problem is that when I add an annotation on page 1 ofa pdf document,
Adobe can read it easily, but when I try to add it i=on the second page,
Adobe display it, but nothing happen when I click on it.
Quite disturbing...
Can you explain me what's wrong?
here is the code:
PdfContentByte cb = stamp.getOverContent(2);
PdfAppearance normal = cb.createAppearance(16, 16);
try
{
com.lowagie.text.Image img=
com.lowagie.text.Image.getInstance(normal.gif);
img.setAbsolutePosition(0, 0);
normal.addImage(img);
}
catch (BadElementException e)
{
System.out.println(ERREUR1);
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch (DocumentException e)
{
System.out.println(ERREUR2);
e.printStackTrace();
}
annot.setAppearance(PdfAnnotation.APPEARANCE_NORMAL, normal);
stamp.addAnnotation(annot, 2);
stamp.close();

[iText-questions] Checkbox in a PdfPCell
Using the example, RegisterForm1 in chapter 15, I attempted to insert a checkbox in a PdfPCell but it doesn't show up. I even sized it as half as big as the example and I still could not get it into the cell. I have attached the java source, the input text file and the output pdf. The checkbox logic starts at line 166. Any help spotting the problem will be greatly appreciated.

Re: [iText-questions] Usage Right For Acrobat Reader Problem
Gentlemen, You are addressing the exact problem I need to solve, almost. My case has one difference. I have a PDF Acroform that I created with my licensed copy of Adobe Acrobat Pro ver 8. I am the author of the PDF form and need to set the password security and enable user rights. My (C# iTextSharp) application software needs to open the PDF form, read field content, and write output to ascii files. It works properly with security of 'no password' or 'password' protected (without enabled user rights). My code fails when I attempt to open the PDF if it is both 'password' protected and has user rights enabled. I have two questions: 1. Is it possible and legal for me to sucessfully open and read content from the 'password' protected, rights enabled PDF form with iTextSharp? 2. What is the simplest C# code snippet to perform this process. Sincerely Kent Smith Systems Engineer Bruno Lowagie (iText) wrote: Gilberto Fres wrote: I create a form with the usage right for Acrobat Reader enabled. Thus you decide that you will stick with Adobe products, and not use any other product, as Adobe has the monopoly on Reader Enabled documents. I test the form using the Acrobat reader and work fine. I can save and export the data ok. Yes, but Adobe is the only company that may use the key needed to encrypt a hash of the document to make reader enabling possible. But I want to fill out some of the form field using itext and the user should fill the rest of fields. The user will be able to do that, but the document will no longer be reader enabled. Itext filled the fields ok, but when I open the form using the Acrobat Reader for the user finish fill out the rest of fields, I got the following message: This document contained certain rights to enable special features in Adobe Reader. The document had been changed since it was created and these rights are no longer valid. Please contact the author for the original version of this document. A hash of the original document was encrypted using the key ONLY ADOBE may use, then you changed the document. Adobe Reader notices this change and says: hey, this document is no longer reader enabled. I don’t know if someone brought this issue before. Yes, plenty of times. My question is What I can do to avoid this problem? Nothing. It's more a legal issue, than it is a technical issue. br, Bruno - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
