> Show me your code.
The code basically does this:
content.roundRectangle((float) nativeToDevice(getX()), (float)
nativeToDevice(getY()), (float) nativeToDevice(getWidth()), (float)
nativeToDevice(-getHeight()), (float) nativeToDevice(smallest));
content.setLineWidth((float) nativeToDevice(borderWidth));
content.stroke();
content is a Document.getDirectContent() PdfContentByte object.
In the execution, the paramters looks like this:
content.roundRectangle(291.68503, 776.5795, 14.173228, -15.703937,
3.3543307);
The - at the height comes because my engine calculates everything from
top to bottom, but the coordinate system in iText (or PDF) is from
bottom to top, so I write a rectangle backwards.
The line width comes to
0.8503937
As for the picture problem.. well.. I don't think that this is a problem
of iText at all (except the file size, but that comes down to be my
problem as well I guess). The code I have right now, does this:
// Convert the image that comes in whatever format possible to PNG..
try { imageConverter.convert(object, "png"); }
catch (IOException io) {
io.printStackTrace();
return;
}
// get the AWT image container in PNG format
java.awt.Image awtImage = (java.awt.Image)
imageConverter.getObject();
// get a PDF image instance of this AWT image
Image pdfImage;
try { pdfImage = Image.getInstance(awtImage, null); }
catch (BadElementException be) {
be.printStackTrace();
return;
}
catch (IOException io) {
io.printStackTrace();
return;
}
// If its a picture (and not a barcode...)
if (object.getOrigin() instanceof Picture) {
// write the background and border styles...
decorateField(outputContainer, object);
Dimension dimension = (Dimension) object.extensions().get(Dimension.class);
switch (((Picture) object.getOrigin()).getSizeMode()) {
case Picture.ORIGINAL:
break;
case Picture.STRETCH:
// Stretch the picture to fill the dimension of the original
// container...
pdfImage.scaleAbsolute((float) nativeToDevice(width), (float)
nativeToDevice(height));
...
// Now set the picture to the position set by the report engine...
pdfImage.setAbsolutePosition((float) nativeToDevice(pX), (float)
nativeToDevice(pY - height));
// and add it to the PDF..
try { content.addImage(pdfImage); }
catch (DocumentException de) { de.printStackTrace(); }
Thats it. I did not yet implement clipping, because I don't know how to
do it yet, I'm still experimenting with java.awt.Image.setClip(), but
that has nothing to do with iText.
I dont' know if my problem is something that has already been answered
many times before, as I did not search into the forum that deeply, but I
didn't see anything. If this is the typical "iText newbie didn't RTFM"
question, I would like to apologize in advance, and I will sadly hang my
head to shame and return to the tutorials and FAW's, but I couldn't find
it, so.. :-)
Regards and many thanks,
Roger Misteli
