Now I read the section in chapter 18 in which you explain why it is not a good
idea to use pdf as a format for editing. Your arguments are all true, but the
only problem that I've got, is that I must implement such a solution in my pdf
document.
At the moment I read the base document with the total page num on each page.
For each page I check if there a some templates. If there are some templates
on this page I take them and change the text in it. But the total page num
doen't change. Is there somethig wrong in my implementation. My list of
templates consist only of PdfTemplates and I change there value with showText
().
Code example:
PdfReader readerBase = new PdfReader(Test.pdf);
int pagenumBase = readerBase.getNumberOfPages();
PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(readerBase, new FileOutputStream
(Test_New.pdf));
int i = 1;
while (i <= pagenumBase) {
if (templatesMap.get(i).size() > 0){
Iterator<APdfTemplate> templateIterator = templatesMap.get(i).iterator();
while(templateIterator.hasNext()) {
APdfTemplate template = templateIterator.next();
PdfTemplate tpl = template.getTemplate();
IReportText reportText = template.getIReportTextObj();
BaseFont font = getFontTypeHelper().convertFont(reportText.GetFontName
(), reportText.GetFontSize(), reportText.GetFontColor(), reportText.GetFormat
(), getContextConnector()).getBaseFont();
String text = "" + (pagenumBase + offset);
float fontSize = (float) reportText.GetFontSize();
tpl.beginText();
tpl.setFontAndSize(font, fontSize);
tpl.setTextMatrix(0, 0);
tpl.showText(text);
tpl.endText();
}
}
i++;
}
stamper.close();
