Anita Kulkarni updated PDFBOX-1753:
-----------------------------------
Description:
When trying to add a line to the existing PDF document with a table the table
headers appear gibberish.
the table header used to be PMITS Asset ID and after adding the header it
reads as: 3 0 , 7 6 $ V V H W. some gibberish characters. Here is my code:
// the document
PDDocument doc = null;
try
{
doc = PDDocument.load( file );
List allPages = doc.getDocumentCatalog().getAllPages();
//PDFont font = PDType1Font.HELVETICA_BOLD;
for( int i=0; i<allPages.size(); i++ )
{
PDPage page = (PDPage)allPages.get( i );
PDRectangle pageSize = page.findMediaBox();
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(doc,
page, true, true,true);
PDFont font = PDType1Font.TIMES_ROMAN;
float fontSize = 15.0f;
contentStream.beginText();
// set font and font size
contentStream.setFont( font, fontSize);
contentStream.moveTextPositionByAmount(700, 1150);
contentStream.drawString( message);
contentStream.endText();
//contentStream.
contentStream.close();}
doc.save( outfile );
}
finally
{
if( doc != null )
{
doc.close();
}
}
}
