Hello,
I'm working on application that creates pdf documents that contain some
client specific information along with a logo that our clients upload to
our database in pdf format.
I'm retieving the logo as a byte array ( from a BLOB) that I then use to
create an Image object. Since the logos will vary, I'm using scaleToFit
and setAbsolutePosition to place the logo on the page.
>From reading the list archives and "IText in Action", my understanding is
scaleToFit should stuff my image into the rectangle specified in the
method parameters e.g scaleToFit(100, 400) should put my image in a 100 x
400 rectangle no matter what size the image is. Is this correct? Because
what's happening now is that the rectangle seems to vary in size
dependending on the image I use. I've put borders around the rectangle in
order to see it better and it get's bigger or smaller depending on the
image. I would have thought that the rectangle size should remain constant
with Itext doing it's best to scale the image to fit -- making it either
bigger or smaller to fill the specified space.
I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding what scale to fit does or if I've
simply missed something. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here's my code:
PdfReader logoreader = new
PdfReader(orsWhiteLbl.getBlob("CLIENT_LOGO").getBinaryStream());
Image Logo = Image.getInstance(writer.getImportedPage(logoreader, 1));
Logo.setBorder(Image.BOX);
Logo.setBorderColor(java.awt.Color.red);
Logo.setBorderWidth(1);
Logo.scaleToFit(50, 400);
Logo.setAbsolutePosition(10 + piX, 754 + piY);
document.add(Logo);
Regards,
Tom Jeziorny
