It works with the MemoryStream, but I can't write to file correctly. The
file is created, looks to be about the correct size, but is always
corrupt upon opening. Is there some other way to write to file using
MemoryStream without FileStream? The PDF shows up as expected in my
browser. Thanks!
Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4, 36, 36, 36 + 189, 36);
bodyTable = new PdfPTable(1);
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
PdfWriter pw = PdfWriter.GetInstance(document, ms);
pw.InitialLeading = 16; //to make space for the header
on each page
pw.PageEvent = e;
document.Open();
document.Add(new PdfPTable(1)); //content
document.Add(new PdfPTable(1)); //content
document.Add(new PdfPTable(1)); //content
try
{
FileStream fs = new
FileStream(@"C:\path\i\have\permission\to\write\" + stringfilename +
"-1.pdf", FileMode.Create);
ms.WriteTo(fs);
fs.Close();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
}
document.Close();
byteStream = ms.GetBuffer();
ms.Close();

Instead of a FileStream use a MemoryStream. Forget about DirectContent.

Subject: [iText-questions] When can I access
PdfWriter.DirectContent for abyte stream?
I am trying to output a PDF using byte stream (iTextSharp 5),
but the DirectContent member of PdfWriter is empty. Am I accessing it at
the wrong time? This code is in the constructor of my worksheet class:
Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4, 36,
36, 36 + 189, 36);
bodyTable = new PdfPTable(1);
PdfWriter pw = PdfWriter.GetInstance(document,
new FileStream(stringname + ".pdf", FileMode.Create));
pw.InitialLeading = 16; //to make space for the
header on each page
pw.PageEvent = e;
document.Open();
document.Add(new PdfPTable(1)); //content
document.Add(new PdfPTable(1)); //content
document.Add(new PdfPTable(1)); //content
byteStream = pw.DirectContent.ToPdf(pw);
document.Close();
Thanks in advance!
