Re: [iText-questions] HTML to PDF

Hi,

I changed my code to what you mentioned Vibhav, but still no success, here is what the code looks like now.

                        document = new Document(PageSize.A4);
                        PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("ContactSheet02.pdf"));
                        document.open();
                        htmlWorker = new HTMLWorker(document);
                        HashMap interfaceProps = new HashMap();
                        interfaceProps.put("IMG_BASEURL", "/Users/");

                        StyleSheet styles = new StyleSheet();
                        styles.loadTagStyle("li", "face", "garamond");
                        styles.loadTagStyle("span", "size", "8px");
                        styles.loadTagStyle("body", "font-family", "times new roman");
                        styles.loadTagStyle("body", "font-size", "10px");
                        StringReader strReader = new StringReader(str.toString());

                        ArrayList<Element> objects = htmlWorker.parseToList(strReader, styles, interfaceProps);

                        for (int k = 0; k < objects.size(); ++k)
                            document.add((Element) objects.get(k));

                        document.close();

It just creates the PDF without the images :(. Oh, I am using iText version 2.1.4, not sure if that makes a difference.

Regards,
Vivek

Hi Vivek,

The problem is that the image src path you have given is a relative. To use this you need to set "img_baseurl" property in the interface properties.

To do this:

Dictionary<string, object> interfaceProps = new Dictionary<string, object>();

interfaceProps.Add("img_baseurl", "Actual Path to the Image folder");

The interfaceProps variable should be passed to the HTMLWorker during parsing of your document.

Hi Nurettin,

Thanks for replying. I have checked that, my problem is that I have a well formed html file and I am reading the file in a Buffer and

Document document=new Document(PageSize.A4);
PdfWriter.getInstance(document,new FileOutputStream("Test.pdf"));
document.open();
HTMLWorker htmlWorker = new HTMLWorker(document);
StringBuffer str = new StringBuffer();
str.append("<html xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\" xml:lang=\"en\" lang=\"en\">         ");
str.append("<head>                                                                      ");
..
...
str.append("        <div class=\"image\">                                                     ");
str.append("            <img src="" width=\"800\" height=\"532\" alt=\"Display\" />");
str.append("            <br />                        ");
str.append("            Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.   ");
...
...
str.append("</body>");
str.append("</html>");
htmlWorker.parse(new StringReader(str.toString()));
document.close();

Only the link highlighted in BLUE is not begin displayed, but an empty-space is displayed for that height and width mentioned.

Any idea?

Regards,
Vivek

You may look at PdfImageProvider. Basically, it is an interface that you need to implement to provide iText with the actual images for a given img URL src and attributes as found in your source. You can define custom transformations of src URL in your PdfImageProvider instance.
