Hi all, I've to generate a file PDF based on a pdf models (generated previously by distiller, 1 page) and fill this model many times for different user data. At the moment, the generated file is very big because the models get added for each user. Model aren't based on fields due to the process of its generation.
Follow the merge process (data on model) - Load the model in this way: PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(m_modelPath + curModel); PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContent(); PdfImportedPage impPage = writer.getImportedPage(reader, 1); cb.addTemplate(impPage, 0, 0); - Set needed font and write the text (specific for one user) over the model using cb.showTextAligned(...) ... and so on for all user data loading always the same model. Model size is 50Kb~ against 1k of textual data. My aim is to embed only one time the model and link different textual data to the previous model. Is possible with iText ?
