Hi,Antonio
Thank you for your reply.
Here is my whole jsp code. It is OK except that I want:
response.setContentType("application/pdf);
rather than:
response.setContentType("application/pdf;charset=Shift_JIS");
(I'm looking into .java in tomcat work directory which jasper generates.)
<%@ page
language="java"
import="java.io.*, com.lowagie.text.*, com.lowagie.text.pdf.*"
%>
<%@ page contentType="application/pdf" pageEncoding="Shift_JIS" %>
<%
Document document = new Document();
ByteArrayOutputStream buffer = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PdfWriter pdfwriter = PdfWriter.getInstance( document, buffer );
document.open();
BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont("HeiseiKakuGo-W5","UniJIS-UCS2-H",false);
PdfContentByte pcb = pdfwriter.getDirectContent();
pcb.beginText();
pcb.setTextMatrix(50,800);
pcb.setFontAndSize(bf,12);
pcb.setLeading(15);
pcb.showText("English");
pcb.showText("---JAPANESE CHARACTER HERE----");
pcb.endText();
document.close();
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=pdf4.pdf");
response.setContentLength(buffer.size());
ServletOutputStream output = response.getOutputStream();
buffer.writeTo(output);
output.flush();
%>
