It doesn't look like you ever use the Pattern you have defined. I think you need to use mPdfContentByte.setPatternFill() and/or mPdfContentByte.setPatternStroke() in order to use the pattern. When you print does it look correct (does your pattern display)?
Also, I don't think your first call to lPdfPatternPainter.stroke() does anything. I don't think I've answered your speed question, but perhaps cleaning up some of these will help?

Here is the way I am using patterns. mPdfContentByte.moveTo(mXValues[0] , mYValues[0]); for (int lPoint = 1; lPoint < mXValues.length; lPoint++) { mX1 = mXValues[lPoint]; mY1 = mYValues[lPoint]; //Draw the line mPdfContentByte.lineTo(mX1 , mY1); } //Generate the 45 degree line pattern PdfPatternPainter lPdfPatternPainter = mPdfContentByte.createPattern(4 , 4); lPdfPatternPainter.stroke(); lPdfPatternPainter.setLineWidth(0.35f); lPdfPatternPainter.moveTo( -0.5f , 2f); lPdfPatternPainter.lineTo(2 , 4.5f); lPdfPatternPainter.moveTo(1 , -0.5f); lPdfPatternPainter.lineTo(4.5f , 3); lPdfPatternPainter.stroke(); mPdfContentByte.closePathFillStroke(); The above is in loop and for a particular graph this looped for 2 times. The spool file size thus printed is 1MB and took almost 8 to 10 minutes to print. Am I doing something wrong?

When I print the file through Acrobat the spool file size is around 1MB and takes atleast 10 minutes to print. Can anyone pl. tell me how to attack this problem?
