Hi i have bought the book and tried out the example but i am having a problem
filling out an acroform.
below is my code, which is almost directly taken from the example listing in
8.2.9
i am calling it with
fillForm(RESOURCE, RESULT1, false, false);
fillForm(RESOURCE, RESULT2, true, false);
fillForm(RESOURCE, RESULT3, false, true);
they all given error on the *new PdfStamper * line saying
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: PdfReader not opened with owner password
I am using iText version 2.0.8. (due to us also using Flying Saucer).
public void fillForm(InputStream in, OutputStream out, boolean remove,
boolean preserve) {
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(in);
if (remove)
reader.removeUsageRights();
PdfStamper stamper;
if (preserve) {
stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, out, '\0', true);
} else {
stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, out);
}
AcroFields form = stamper.getAcroFields();
Map<String, Item> fields = form.getFields();
Iterator<Entry<String, Item>> entries =
fields.entrySet().iterator();
while (entries.hasNext()) {
Entry thisEntry = (Entry) entries.next();
String key = (String) thisEntry.getKey(); // key on the
acroform
// do some lookup
form.setField(key, value);
}
what am i missing? any help would be greatly appreciated.
