Re: pdf creation hell
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.

RE: pdf creation hell
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. -mark Mark A.

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.
