I am having an issue with adding fillable form fields to a table cell.
I can get the first text fields to be fillable on a pdf, but the rest of
the fields are not fillable. There are about 50 iterations through the
loop. Only the first field is editable.
However, when I use the tab key, it appears that the PDF recognizes that
there are more fields to "tab" to, but it just can't find them.
Here is the code:
public class Percent implements PdfPCellEvent {
private static Logger log = Logger.getLogger(Percent.class);
protected PdfWriter writer;
protected PdfFormField parent;
protected String partialFieldName;
public Percent(PdfWriter writer, PdfFormField parent, String name)
{
this.writer = writer;
this.parent = parent;
this.partialFieldName = name;
}
/**
* @see
com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfPCellEvent#cellLayout(com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfPCell,
* com.lowagie.text.Rectangle,
com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfContentByte[])
*/
public void cellLayout(PdfPCell cell, Rectangle rect,
PdfContentByte[] cb) {
log.debug(
"rect.getLeft(0)/rect.getBottom(1)/rect.getRight(0)/rect.getTop(0)" +
rect.getLeft(0) + "/" + rect.getBottom(1) + "/"+ rect.getRight(0) +
"/" + rect.getTop(0));
Rectangle cellRectangle = new Rectangle(rect.getLeft(0),
rect.getBottom(1), rect.getRight(0), rect.getTop(0));
TextField tf = new TextField(writer, cellRectangle,
partialFieldName);
tf.setFontSize(10);
tf.setMaxCharacterLength(3);
tf.setAlignment(Element.ALIGN_CENTER);
tf.setBackgroundColor(Color.YELLOW);
try {
parent.addKid(tf.getTextField());
writer.addAnnotation(parent);
} catch (Exception e) {
log.error("Exception in cellLayout().", e);
}
}
}
Some code that will loop and want to add editable fields to a table
PdfPTable fundFamilyTable = new
PdfPTable(iColumnWidths.length);
Iterator it = details.iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
PafFundInfo fund = (PafFundInfo)it.next();
fundFamilyTable.addCell(getPdfName(fund.getFundName(),
fund.getFundFootnote(), BASE_FONT, SUPERSCRIPT_FONT));
fundFamilyTable.addCell(new
Paragraph(fund.getRiskClass().getRiskClassDescription(), SMALLER_FONT));
// fundFamilyTable.addCell(new
Paragraph("__________%", BASE_FONT));
PdfPCell cell = new
PdfPCell(fundFamilyTable.getDefaultCell());
cell.setPadding(CELL_PADDING);
cell.setBorderWidthBottom(0.2f);
PdfFormField field =
PdfFormField.createEmpty(writer);
field.setFieldName(fund.getFundNumber());
cell.setCellEvent(new Percent(writer, field,
fund.getFundNumber()));
fundFamilyTable.addCell(cell);
} //end of while loop for displaying details
//Add the last fund family
mainTable.addCell(fundFamilyTable);
End of code in question.
