Re: [iText-questions] Image and Text on same line

Following is the code. I manages to get it to add the Number on the top, but it is still not next to the image. I am very new to this and am just trying to learn how to properly use the iText libraries, so any help/advise would be very useful. It's  in a JSP by the way....     <%@ page contentType="application/pdf; charset=iso-8859-1" language="java" import="com.lowagie.text.Image,java.awt.Color,java.util.*,java.text.*,com.lowagie.text.*,com.lowagie.text.Chunk,com.lowagie.text.Font,com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter,com.lowagie.text.pdf.ColumnText,com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfContentByte,java.util.*,java.io.*"%><% Document document = new Document(); ByteArrayOutputStream baosPDF = new ByteArrayOutputStream(); PdfWriter docWriter = null; docWriter = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, baosPDF); document.open();     PdfContentByte cb = docWriter.getDirectContent();      com.lowagie.text.pdf.ColumnText ct = new com.lowagie.text.pdf.ColumnText(cb);      float[] right = {70, 320};      float[] left = {300, 550};              String[] images = {"0601.01.00-A.gif","0601.01.00.gif","0602.01.00-A.gif","0602.02.00.gif","0603.02.00.gif","0605.01.00-A.gif","0601.01.00-                    A.gif","0601.01.00.gif","0602.01.00-A.gif","0602.02.00.gif","0603.02.00.gif","0605.01.00-A.gif","0601.01.00-            A.gif","0601.01.00.gif","0602.01.00-A.gif","0602.02.00.gif","0603.02.00.gif","0605.01.00-A.gif"};   String pth= "http://myimages.blah/";   Chunk t = new Chunk("Directions: ANSWER The Following Questions to the best of your ability.\n\n",FontFactory.getFont(FontFactory.TIMES, 8, Font.BOLD, new Color(0, 0, 0)));   ct.addText(t);   for(int i=0;i<images.length;i++){     String s = String.valueOf(i+1) + ".";     java.net.URL u = new java.net.URL(pth + images[i]);     com.lowagie.text.Image im = com.lowagie.text.Image.getInstance(u);     float orgHeight;     float iWidth= (document.getPageSize().width())/(float)2.5;     orgHeight=(im.plainHeight()*iWidth)/im.plainWidth();     im.scaleAbsolute((float)iWidth,orgHeight);     im.setAlignment(Image.RIGHT | Image.TEXTWRAP);     Chunk ch = new Chunk(s,FontFactory.getFont(FontFactory.TIMES, 8, Font.BOLD, new Color(0, 0, 0)));     ct.addText(ch);     Chunk c = new Chunk(im,5,-10,true);     ct.addText(c);     c = new Chunk("\n\n");       ct.addText(c);   }   int status = 0;   int column = 0;   while((status & ColumnText.NO_MORE_TEXT) == 0) {               ct.setSimpleColumn(right[column], 50, left[column], 790, 10,  Element.ALIGN_UNDEFINED);               ct.setLeading(0,1);              status = ct.go();               if ((status & ColumnText.NO_MORE_COLUMN) != 0) {                     column++;                     if (column > 1) {                         document.newPage();                         column = 0;                     }                 }             }             document.close(); response.setContentLength(baosPDF.size()); baosPDF.writeTo(response.getOutputStream()); response.getOutputStream().flush();%> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Timothy Woolley [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.intervisionmedia.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ----- Original Message ----- From: Timothy Woolley To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Thursday, January 20, 2005 10:31 AM Subject: [iText-questions] Image and Text on same line I am trying to generate a PDF which contains Images and text in Columns.
