Hi,
In my app I have to create PDF hard copies of the reports created on the
screen (Save as PDF)
The header of a report is defined by the user himself.
He's allowed to use HTML formatting to format the header according to
his whishes.
A possible (simple) header string could be:
<div style=\"color:red; font-size:16px\">This is the header in
red.</div>
Now the only possible way to add HTML formatted text to a PDF document I
found
is using HtmlParser.parse():
String content = "<div style=\"color:red; font-size:16px\">This
is text in red.</div>";
java.io.StringReader reader = new
java.io.StringReader("<p>"+content+"</p>");
com.lowagie.text.html.HtmlParser.parse(document, reader);
This works OK.
Now my question is this:
how can I get (a reference to) the Chunk, Paragraph, Section or wathever
element iText creates
when it writes that HTML formatted text in the PDF file?
In fact I want to create a table with that HTML formatted text in one of
the cells.
Is that possible?
In that case the method HtmlParser.parse(document,...) doesn't help me
much.
How do I do it?
Second question: (How) can I position that HTML-formatted text
absolutely?
Kind Regards,
Geert Delmeiren

Nice work iText is!
