To whom it may concern Hello and help,
i am using the Itext library or should i say struggling with it ?
my problem is that i want to write arabic txt in a pdf file, after fights i could manage to display arabic using the paragraph, i have a unicode class that transforms arabic text to unicode forms i.e /u0627/......
but the problem is that what i call the class arabic is displayed in the correct direction but the characters are not combined together each character is written alone!!!! and as u know in arabic characters are comibined together, but if ur pass to the paragraph directly the unicode /u027/.... arabic comes correctly.
now u might tell me use column text or arabic shaping, i tried the column text but i dunno why i am getting error messages like it is not comptible with sun whatever, i read the arabic shaping class but stil i didn't find a method to which i send a string or a text and get the unicode back and if it will just return each character alone, i already created a class like that.
now is there a solution to display arabic text correctly??/? if yes can u please show me a code sample or example to which u don't send directly the unicode /uo627/etc, i want to call a class to transform arabic text to unicode and then place it in the paragraph example:
x=new paragraph(unicode.convert("����"),new Font(bf,16)); where unicode is my class that transform arabic text to unicode and convert is the method that does the job,
P.S i used the same idea in add.text i got blank!!! or even the unidcode is appearing and not the text why?
regards and hope u can help me with a piece of code or at least a detailed explanation
thank you for ur efforts
bye
