Hi Marc,

Thanks for the reply. I already tried your suggestion before posting and that 
didn't work so I guess I will parse out the  fields as you suggested. 

Thanks,

Marc

Marc,

Itext does not honor every style and convention... and I suspect input boxes
would (obviously) be a problem. I would try adding an inline style block to
the input block - or appending to the one that's there (style="text-align:
right;")... if that fails, parse out the  tags and leave just the
values in the table cells.

Subject: pdf creation hell


Hi,

I create a pdf from cf-generated HTML. Part of it is a table with numbers.
Most of the table cells contain  with text or numbers
inside. I want the fields with numbers in one of the columns to be
right-aligned so it is easy to see how they ad up but I am unable to do so.
When I view the page (that is to be rendered as pdf) in the browser the
numbers are perfectly right-aligned. But when the pdf is generated from that
same html/css, the numbers are either left-aligned or centered.

I use an included style sheet.

The css rule I use to right-align text is "text-align:right". I use that in
a style I apply to the input field in the table cells.

This is my  tag:


fontembed="yes" gave me the same problem.

The rest of the pdf looks Ok so the pdf generator has no problem with the
HTML. Just this text - align part.

I use CF 9.0.1 on Mac OS X with apache 2.2

Does anyone have an idea what could be causing this?

Thanks,

Marc
