Hello,
First, i can't find the thread of the rules. If i make any mistake please
forgive-me, and send to me a link to the rules.
I'm using iText 5.3.1 in a Java project that consists of the following:
1) Generate the form: I have a java tool that generates the pdf form. It's
using itext to accomplish this.
2) Fill out the form: I have a pdf viewer in java too. It allows the filling
of forms.
3) Save the form.
3.1) Flatten Fields: I've managed to accomplish this part of using this
function:
private boolean flattFields (ByteArrayOutputStream baos, String
path) {
try {
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader (baos.toByteArray ());
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream (new File
(path));
PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper (reader, fos);
stamper.setFormFlattening (true);
stamper.close ();
return true;
} Catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace ();
return false;
} Catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace ();
return false;
} Catch (DocumentException e) {
e.printStackTrace ();
return false;
}
}
3.2) Save the PDF in the format PDF/A_1B: I'm reading the book and found the
example in the list 13.1 - pdfXpdfA. But in the example it creates a pdf
directly entering the context:
...
document.add (new Paragraph ("Hello World", font));
...
In my case I have a normal pdf file with the fields filled and flattened.
I need help on how to get and insert all the content of the original pdf
into the newpdf/a_1B.
