Why are you going through XML at all? It would seem to be more straightforward
to create the PDF
directly as you are parsing the HTML. There are features in iText that you
can't access from the
built in XML handling. I would avoid it if possible.

Subject: [iText-questions] outputstream/inputstream
I have created a wiki engine, that stores data in a mysql database and
dynamically creates html pages from the database, using servlets and
apache velocity. as the users shall be able to create pdf from the wiki
pages, I convert the code from html to xml and from there to itext using
the sax parser. right now I create a temporary xml file and then feed it
to the sax parser.
so far so good. but actually I do not want to create the xml file but to
use an outputstream, inputstream. I tried using pipedoutputstream and
pipedinputstream, but when the pages are getting bigger in size, the
piping does not work - the process hangs:
here is some code:
File f = new File("tempcode.xml");
Writer writer = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(f));
writer.write(somedata);
...
FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(f);
XmlParser.parse(document, in);
this works well.
but what I really want to do is something like:
PipedOutputStream out = new PipedOutputStream();
PipedInputStream in = new PipedInputStream(out);
out.write(somedata);
XmlParser.parse(document, in);
can somebody help me to set output/inputstream correctly up?
thanks for your help.
regards,
uwe geercken
