Sure, see attachment.
Here’s the
iText example code I used to generate that file:
public static
void main(String[] args) throws DocumentException, IOException {
Rectangle
pageSize = PageSize.A4.rotate();
Font font =
new Font("SansSerif", Font.PLAIN, 12);
Document
document = new Document(pageSize);
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PdfWriter
writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, bos);
document.open();
PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContent();
Graphics2D g
= cb.createGraphics(pageSize.getWidth(), pageSize.getHeight());
g.setFont(font);
g.drawString("A340", 100, 100);
// forgetting
to dispose of the graphics object will generate a PDF without warning, but
Adober Reader will freeze on the first mouse click
//
g.dispose();
document.close();
FileOutputStream os = new FileOutputStream("c:/tmp/capabilities.pdf");
os.write(bos.toByteArray());
os.close();
}
Thanks for your
interest in the issue.
Regards
Stephen
PS:
On the off-chance
that you can do something about it: It would be great (and compliant with 99.9
% of other software) if I could dismiss the “No (more) matches were found”
dialog (after searching) in Reader by pressing “ESC”. I just can’t
get it into my fingers to hit ENTER instead.

Subject: [iText-questions] iText generated PDF hangs Adobe Reader 9.1
I am generating a PDF using PdfGraphics2D.
While testing the generated PDF in Adobe
Reader (9.1.0) I noticed that the Reader displays the document just fine, but
freezes on the first mouse click to the document (I was trying to select text):
Full CPU utilization, no redrawing.
Interestingly Foxit Reader can handle the
document fine.
After a while I found that the reason was
that I forgot to call dispose() on the Graphics2D object I used for drawing.
So this e-mail is a warning and hopefully a
helpful google-search result for other iText users.
Also, to prevent this kind of mistake:
Would it be possible to issue a warning (on
the console) if the document is closed while there are still undisposed
Grpahics2D objects for its content?
