Yes. > I have a string containing html formatting tags and want to change the font > depending on these tags. Use HTMLWorker. See chapter 14. When I refer to a chapter number, but you don't have the book, you can always look for the examples in that chapter here: http://1t3xt.info/examples/itext-in-action.php You'll find this example: http://1t3xt.info/examples/browse/?page=example&id=233 Suppose that the 'tags' aren't HTML, then you could create your own parser and use Chunks as explained by Alexis and combine different chunks into a Phrase or a Paragraph. This is explained in chapter 4 of the book. > I know this is possible with PDFLib (replacing the tags with <fontname ...>) > but how should I do in iText? With iText you even have a mechanism called FontSelector. But that's another story. FontSelector doesn't work with tags, but looks at the UNICODE value of each character. If a Chinese character encountered, it tries finding a font (in a list of fonts you've provided) that has this character. (This is explained in chapter 9.) best regards, Bruno ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
