congratulation to the iText programm, it's a nice and smart framework for pdf generation.
So at the moment I use the Itext version of itext-jdk1.1-124.zip from paulo for a small utility programm for barcode generation.
But I have trouble with the Table implementation and debugged a litle bit for try to understand how it works
I use for this the current cvs version not the jdk1.1
I found this:
- All inner Table are rerenderd into a great outer Table
- A table with 1 row and 1 col becomes now 3 row and 3 cols,
ok it seems for positioning the inner table
- the first row isn't set to 0 or 1 point height so that the inner
inner table ( now cols and rows) had a lack of space to the
row before
- the table properies of border are not set to the new generated cols
- a 1 row and 1 col outer table with a 1 row and 1 col inner table are
not rerenderd the recalc block must not test of different rows or
cols it must be test of inner table (I can make diff for it)
- the colspann (if it set) of cols after an included table are
not updated, so that the cols are not placed over the designed cols
- fixed height of a row can not be made-oOo-
Here is a new Idea of table ingeration:
If I understood it right the element's in an pdf document where filled by lines and/or fixed placed elements
When the table implementation use fixed cordinates for the table inner and outer we dont need the recalculation of rows and cols. We need only at the document generation prozess the absolut height and with of the inner tables for positioning and generation of the cols who hold the inner table.
Is this a way to go ??
