Re: Linearized dictionary

2017-05-18 Thread karthick g 
Hi,
* I need to Check whether my PDF file is Linearized or not, for fast view
web. *
In the previous version (1.8.2) of PDFBox Linearized is in the COSName. I
will get the COSDictionary and check whether Linearized is available in the
COSName and conclude the PDF is suited for fast web view. Now Linearized
keyword is not in
the List of COSName. How can I get the Linearized dictionary in PDFBox.
Please let me know if you need more details.

Regards,
Karthick G

Thanks for your reply, Tilman.

I see PDFBox allows for text field/area (single or multi-line), list box, combo 
box, check box, push button, and radio button.

Would it be reasonable to say that implementing a date picker in an acroform 
should be possible, but would require JavaScript (e.g., using 
PDFormFieldAdditionalActions class)?



Yes.

Hi team,

I am a long time user of PDFBox. We starts to migrate pdfbox from 1.8.2 to
2.0.5.
During migration I found that Linearized dictionary moved to preflight jar.
No, that's not correct. It was always part of preflight and located in the 
preflight jar.



I created the PDDocument based on preflight context which is returning null.
Since the PDDocument is null I can't proceed further. What is the right way
to
get Lineraized dictionary in the current version of PDFBox . Please guide
me.

It isn't needed to parse a linearized pdf. Why do you need it?


Please let me know if you need more details.

Thanks, Andreas. I think I got there as the result of a Google search.

This time I specifically went to 
https://www.mail-archive.com/users@pdfbox.apache.org/ and things are working 
much better.

You are using the wrong ml-address, replace "pdfbox-us...@incubator.apache.org" 
with "users@pdfbox.apache.org". The former one was deprecated in 2009 when 
pdfbox graduated to a top level project.
