Document doc = new Document(new iTextSharp.text.Rectangle(564, 351)); PdfWriter writer= PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, new FileStream(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("1.pdf"), FileMode.Create)); doc.Open(); PdfContentByte cb = writer.DirectContent; cb.BeginText();
For Western font families, you'd use the bold or italic font; I assume that you don't have a simheibd.ttf, simheii.ttf or simheibi.ttf
BaseFont bfont = BaseFont.CreateFont(@"c:\windows\fonts\SIMHEI.TTF", BaseFont.IDENTITY_H, BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);//Chinese font Heiti
When you don't have bold, italic or bold italic fonts for Heiti, you'll have to mimic bold and/or italic.
cb.SetFontAndSize(bfont, 18); cb.SetCharacterSpacing(1); cb.SetRGBColorFill(66, 00, 00);
// simulate bold cb.setLineWidth(0.5); cb.setTextRenderingMode(PdfContentByte.TEXT_RENDER_MODE_FILL_STROKE); // simulate italic cb.setTextMatrix(1, 0, 25, 1, 0, 0);
cb.ShowTextAligned(PdfContentByte.ALIGN_LEFT, "??????100,70???????????? ??", 100, 70,0);//Show Chinese character by absolute position cb.EndText(); doc.Close();
The suggestions I made, came from the top of my head. I strongly suggest NOT to use showTextAligned, but to use the ColumnText object to position your text. That way, you can work with high level objects such as Paragraph, Phrase and Chunk. Chunk has methods setSkew() and setTextRenderingMode() that are easier to use than having to set the text matrix, line widths, etc... Because if you change the "graphics state" like this, you need to reset it (I suggest using saveState() and restoreState() if you want to stick to using showTextAligned). -- This answer is provided by 1T3XT BVBA http://www.1t3xt.com/ - http://www.1t3xt.info
