Vinay, As I said, you cannot convert directly JSP into PDF using itext! Remember JSP is not HTML! Itext only have techniques to render HTML tags but not jsp taglibs neither scriptlet!
So you have to render your JSP into HTML, save it somewhere, as I said, and then convert it using the example! After you have your JSP converted into HTML, the task will be easier! Good luck Br, Rico PS: Sorry for asking! Do you work with any web framework? Or do you know MVC design pattern? You should read/use this pattern! JSP should not be used for database access! -----Original Message----- From: vinay789 [mailto:vina...@rediffmail.com] Sent: quinta-feira, 18 de Junho de 2009 07:03 To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [iText-questions] how to convert my jsp output as pdf through itext You only can parse JSP as a HTML output! So you have to save the jsp output let's say, to a byte array in memory or a string orbject or maybe into database! And then you can use HTMLWorker object to parse that HTML snippet and produce the PDF! Here is an example: ........ String html = <p>Who is your daddy?</p> InputStream s = new ByteArrayInputStream(html.getBytes()); List<Element> footer = HTMLWorker.parseToList(new InputStreamReader(s), new StyleSheet()); if(footer.size()>0) { elements.addAll(footer); } //Add parsed template if (elements.size() > 0) { for (Element e : elements) document.add(e); } Hope it will be helpfull!
