Option 1: Regarding the way EOLs are handled in the different OSs. If the Linux version is trying to be like Windows (\r\n), then a Java app could interpret that as two EOLs instead of one, leading to the extra line. The line feeds don't make it into the actual PDF (iText strips them out of the actual characters that are written to the page through Paragraph and so forth), so looking at the PDFs isn't all that helpful.
Option 1.5: The actual input data is different only in the EOLs, resulting in different output. Some intermediate stage (between source & iText) might be "correcting" the EOLs. Option 2: Font access... if one version has accurate font information and the other doesn't, you could easily end up with different line breaks... But that's not it because they're both using the built-in Helvetica. I suggest generating binary dumps of your row data and checking the EOL character[s]. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com #include <disclaimer> typedef std::Disclaimer<Cardiff> DisCard; > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of > Orlando Amador > Sent: Monday, October 30, 2006 4:16 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [iText-questions] Difference in PDF generated in Windows and > Linux > > > Using iText with jasper reports to export reports to PDF.
