The issue is that a PDJpeg can not be created while a ContentStream is being operated on.
Thank you Daniel, Andreas, and the entire PDFBox team. The fix is: PDDocument pdDocument = new PDDocument(); // loop BufferedImage image = myObject.toBufferedImage(); // returns the bf from above PDPage pdPage = new PDPage(new PDRectangle(image.getWidth() + border * 2, image.getHeight() + border * 2)); pdPage.setRotation(myObject.getRotation()); // getRotation() is an int and a multiple of 90 PDJpeg pdJpeg = new PDJpeg(pdDocument,image); contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(pdDocument,pdPage,false,false); contentStream.drawImage(pdJpeg,border,border); pdDocument.addPage(pdPage); // end loop pdDocument.save(outputStream = new FileOutputStream(file)); -- Grant Overby Senior Developer FloorSoft, Inc. Often people, especially computer engineers, focus on the machines. They think, "By doing this, the machine will run faster. By doing this, the machine will run more effectively. By doing this, the machine will something something something." They are focusing on machines. But in fact we need to focus on humans, on how humans care about doing programming or operating the application of the machines. We are the masters. They are the slaves. -- Yukihiro Matsumoto ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Daniel Wilson <[email protected]> Date: Fri, Oct 1, 2010 at 3:54 PM Subject: Re: insufficient data for an image To: [email protected], [email protected] As begun at http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Languages/Java/Q_26515004.html... Can you create an issue in JIRA with this *and include* both the image you're using and the PDF you're getting? Thanks.
