"Lots of antiquated corporate requirements" would be my guess. "Nothing
gets installed on our computers until its blessed by IT" + "IT has been
grossly underfunded for years" = "outdated software installations".

Given that Reader 7 is no longer supported by Adobe, and that
the upgrade to Reader X (the current version) is FREE - why do you care?

Subject: [iText-questions] Issue with opening Pdf in Acrobat 7
The following piece of code is supposed to take an existing pdf
and add a bubble with a text in it. It works correctly when opening in
Adode Reader 8 and 9. But in Reader 7, it throws "Error while parsing a
Form, Type 3 font, or Pattern". The code in bold is causing the issue
but i dont know how to fix it. using System; using
System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using
iTextSharp.text.pdf; using iTextSharp.text; using System.IO; namespace
ITextPdfCheck { class Program { private static Image
_GetBubbleImage(PdfContentByte cb, Font font, string label, float
bubbleX, float bubbleY) { PdfTemplate boxTemplate =
cb.CreateTemplate(bubbleX, bubbleY); boxTemplate.SetLineWidth(1);
boxTemplate.Ellipse(1, 1, bubbleX - 1, bubbleY - 1); if
(!String.IsNullOrEmpty(label)) { boxTemplate.BeginText();
boxTemplate.SetTextRise(bubbleX / 5.0F);
boxTemplate.SetTextRenderingMode(PdfContentByte.TEXT_RENDER_MODE_STROKE)
; boxTemplate.SetFontAndSize(font.BaseFont, 8); float textWidth =
boxTemplate.GetEffectiveStringWidth(label, false);
boxTemplate.MoveText((bubbleX - textWidth) / 2, 0);
boxTemplate.ShowText(label); boxTemplate.EndText();
boxTemplate.Stroke(); } else { boxTemplate.Fill(); } return
Image.GetInstance(boxTemplate); } internal static PdfPCell
CreateBubblePdfCell(PdfContentByte contentByte, string cellContent,
string tagName, float bubbleX, float bubbleY, Font font, int border) {
Image bubbleImage = _GetBubbleImage(contentByte, font, cellContent,
bubbleX, bubbleY); Chunk imageChunk = new Chunk(bubbleImage, 0, 0); if
(!String.IsNullOrEmpty(tagName)) { imageChunk.SetGenericTag(tagName); }
PdfPCell bubbleCell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(imageChunk)) { Border =
border, Padding = 0, BackgroundColor = BaseColor.WHITE,
HorizontalAlignment = Element.ALIGN_CENTER, VerticalAlignment =
Element.ALIGN_TOP }; return bubbleCell; } private static PdfTemplate
_GetBubbleTemplate(Font _Font, PdfContentByte cb, string label, int
bubbleX, int bubbleY, string tagName) { PdfTemplate pdfTemplate =
cb.CreateTemplate(bubbleX + 2, bubbleY + 2); PdfPTable pdfPTable = new
PdfPTable(1); pdfPTable.SetTotalWidth(new float[] { bubbleX }); PdfPCell
pdfPCell = CreateBubblePdfCell(cb, label, tagName, bubbleX, bubbleY,
_Font, 0); pdfPTable.AddCell(pdfPCell); pdfPTable.WriteSelectedRows(0,
-1, 0, pdfPTable.TotalHeight, pdfTemplate); return pdfTemplate; } static

pdfWriter.DirectContent; cb.AddTemplate(pdfImportedPage, 0, 0);
cb.AddTemplate(_GetBubbleTemplate(_Font, cb, "A", 20, 20, ""), 101,
101); pdfReader.Close(); document.Close();
File.WriteAllBytes(@"test1.pdf", localMemoryStream.GetBuffer()); } }
catch (Exception ex) { Console.WriteLine(ex); } document.Close(); } } }
