[iText-questions] Why is my table so compact?

[kg84]

I am writing a table to pdf doc, but it's always compacted. How to achieve
some space above and below to text ( How to increase cell height?).

My code follows:

public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp)
throws ServletException, IOException {

  try{

ByteArrayOutputStream ba = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
  Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4, 10, 10, 10, 10);
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, ba);

document.open();

Table datatable = new Table(2);
datatable.setBorder(Rectangle.NO_BORDER);
int headerwidths[] = { 50, 50};
datatable.setWidths(headerwidths);
datatable.setWidth(100);

Table earnings = new Table(4);
earnings.setPadding(2);
  earnings.setSpacing(2);
int earningswidths[] = {40,10,25,25};
earnings.setWidths(earningswidths);
earnings.setWidth(100);
earnings.setAlignment(Table.ALIGN_MIDDLE);


earnings.addCell(secHeading("Earnings"));
earnings.addCell(secHeading("Hours"));
earnings.addCell(secHeading("Amount"));
earnings.addCell(secHeading("YTD"));

earnings.addCell(secData("Pay 1"));
earnings.addCell(secData(""));
earnings.addCell(secData("$12,180.00"));
earnings.addCell(secData("$118,200.00"));

earnings.addCell(secData("Pay 2"));
earnings.addCell(secData(""));
earnings.addCell(secData("$5.92"));
earnings.addCell(secData("$59.20"));

datatable.insertTable(earnings);

document.add(datatable);
document.close();

  resp.setContentType("application/pdf");
  resp.setContentLength(ba.size());
  ServletOutputStream out = resp.getOutputStream();
  ba.writeTo(out);
  ba.close();

  out.flush();
  out.close();
  System.out.println("Finished.");
  }catch(Exception e){}

  }

  public Cell secHeading(String data) throws BadElementException
  {

Font font = FontFactory.getFont(FontFactory.HELVETICA, 9,
Font.BOLD,new Color(255,255,255));

Cell cell = new Cell(new Phrase(data, font));
cell.setVerticalAlignment(Cell.ALIGN_MIDDLE);
cell.setBackgroundColor(new Color(52,102,153));

return cell;
  }
  public Cell secFooter(String data) throws BadElementException
  {
Cell cell = new Cell(new Phrase(data,
FontFactory.getFont(FontFactory.HELVETICA, 9, Font.BOLD)));
cell.setVerticalAlignment(Cell.ALIGN_MIDDLE);
cell.setBackgroundColor(new Color(204,204,204));

return cell;
  }
  public Cell secData(String data) throws BadElementException
  {
Cell cell = new Cell(new Phrase(data,
FontFactory.getFont(FontFactory.HELVETICA, 9, Font.NORMAL)));
cell.setVerticalAlignment(Cell.ALIGN_MIDDLE);

return cell;
  }

I'm using Cocoon rather than raw servlets, but did manage to resolve this 
problem in my application, where I can fire of the printing of a dynamically 
generated PDF under program control.

The final solution used two parts:

1) A Cocoon flowscript piece of code that generates the PDF and saves it in a 
temp dir for printing, then calls part 2.  Flowscript is just a custom 
version of Javascript, so this would translate pretty easily into Java 
servlet code.

2) A VBS (ugh!) script that uses acrord32.exe (the Acrobat Reader) with an 
undocumented command line parameter to actually do the physical printing to a 
specified printer (default, local or networked), monitors the print job to 
completion then terminates the Reader process (Acrobat doesn't terminate 
itself after the print) and finally deletes the temp file if all went well.

Been working like a charm so far, but only works on Windoze boxes of course, 
due to the VBS dependency.

If you want, ping me privately and I'll send you the Javascript and VBS 
scripts which should get you down the path of printing PDFs under program 
control.

	In order to print ANYTHING on a remote computer, it must be 
received by a component capable of handling the incoming data, 
rendering it into a printable rendition, and then communicating with 
the printer driver to have it sent to the printer in a compatible 
format.

	Normally that program is Adobe Acrobat/Reader and it's web 
browser plugin.   However, there is nothign stopping you from 
providing your customers with a replacement plugin that can perform 
those same actions - or can bridge to Acrobat (running hidden) to do 
it.  See products such as PDFPrint 
().

What you need is a custom mime-type and "helper"
application (you end users will need to install the
"helper").  Security will need to be handled by your
server app using logins and/or the end user's ip
address - standard stuff.

See the attached for an example "helper" app (no
security) that downloads and prints PDF files (Windoze
only, but can be ported to any OS using Perl, etc.).

You will need to modify the .reg file so it matches
the directory where you install the files, then
install the helper using regedit.

Re: [iText-questions] Help required in streaming effect in PDF

[Ravi]

Title: RE: [iText-questions] Help required in streaming effect in PDF



Hi Ben,
 
Are you talking about byte serving of the PDF? I am 
not sure about linearization etc. However I think it is possible to Byte Serve a 
PDF from a java servlet.
 
Here is a link to about the difference between 
Linearization and Byte Serving.
 
http://www.searchpdf.com/id419.htm
 
In your case I assume that 'streaming' means 'byte 
serving'. If you want to try byte serving, try modifying ur servlet to handle 
partial response.. and the request has to be for partial content 
too.
 
Thanks,
Ravi

  It can't be 
  done with the pdf format. Even linearization (that iText doesn't support) 
  requires all the document to be available before starting. Pdf can't be 
  streamed.

	Of course you do - since if you don't transfer the file, the 
browser can't display anything.

	And if the user has their browser configured to NOT do 
in-browser viewing OR if they are using Mac OS X (which doesn't even 
offer in-browser viewing) then they will ALWAYS have the PDF 
downloaded.

	What about Adobe's Content Server?   Then the user doesn't 
have to add anything into their system, since it's all built into 
Acrobat.

	There are even companies that will do all the "security" on 
the PDF and even host it for you...

Re: [iText-questions] pdf print?!?

[Matt Benson]

Then you don't have any problem.  When you said "in
the background" I thought you meant you wanted the
user to see the PDF.  Otherwise you just have to
figure out:

a) how to tell the servlet where to print the PDF, and
b) how to print the PDF from any Java process.

Re: [iText-questions] pdf print?!?

[jdc32]

i know fileopen, but it is too complex for normal users. i use fileopen now,
but my target usergroup are over 50 years old and every 3 user had a problem
with fileopen,...

-you need admin rights as user
-if you have acrobat 6, fileopen is buggy
-the people forget, where the downloaded file was saved
-. :)

so i search for another solution

Re: [iText-questions] pdf print?!?

[Matt Benson]

As has been beaten to death on this forum, once you
serve the PDF to a user, due to the nature of PDF, you
can't control things like whether they copy it or
print it.  You will have to be satisfied with a
summary of the PDF or something similar on the client
side if you want to stop the user from doing something
with it...

How would I do this with nested tables(or is there another way):

3 columns across the document, all with a varying amount of subtables inside

them.  The problem is that the subtables always want to line up horizontally

with the other subtables in the other columns, so there are gaps in between

the subtables in each column.


hope this makes sense

	So what you REALLY want isn't forcing the user to print - 
it's Digital Rights Management.  You need to control what the user 
can (and can not) do with these PDFs.

	IN that case, check out solutions such as FileOpen 
(http://www.fileopen.com).

Re: [iText-questions] pdf print?!?

[chicks]

Many ways to do this.  The simplest is to add
JavaScript to the PDF that will print to the default
printer, or will open a print dialog:


// Check DisplayMethod parm
String displayMethod =
request.getParameter("DisplayMethod");
if (displayMethod.equals("printSilent"))
{
// Add javascript to print to default printer
doc.addJavaScript("this.print({bUI: false, bSilent:
false});\r");
}
else if (displayMethod.equals("printDialog"))
{
// Add javascript to pop up print dialog
doc.addJavaScript("this.print({bUI: true, bSilent:
false});\r");
}

// Close our document
doc.close();

// Tell the requestor what's coming
response.setContentType("application/pdf");

/* CRITICAL 
 * IE may not open embedded Acrobat Reader 
 * without being told the length of the datastream.
 * M$ bug -- still not fixed in IE6.x

***/
response.setContentLength(ba.size());

// Send our filled PDF document back to requestor
ServletOutputStream out =
response.getOutputStream();
ba.writeTo(out);
out.flush();



public void addJavaScript(String jScript) {

try
{
PdfAction jAction = PdfAction.javaScript(jScript,
writer);
writer.addJavaScript(jAction);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.err.println(e);
}
}

coordinated research meeting held in a common place at
a common time.  This model facilitates communication among
researchers in different fields of computer science and
computer engineering.  The last Multiconference attracted
over 1,650 computer science and Engineering researchers
from 78 countries.  It is anticipated that The 2004 Int'l
Multiconference will attract about 2000 participants.
The 2004 event is composed of 18 (planned) major
conferences - attendees will have full access to all 18
conferences' sessions & tracks.
Each conference will have its own proceedings.  All
conference proceedings/books are considered for inclusion
in major database indexes that are designed to provide
easy access to the current literature of the sciences
(database examples: ISI Thomson Scientific, IEE INSPEC,
DBLP, ...).
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS:
Prospective authors are invited to submit their draft paper
(about 5 pages - single space, font size of 12) to Heitor A. X. Costa

Submissions should be made electronically in PDF (preferred)
or PostScript format. Only E-mail submissions are acceptable.
The length of the Camera-Ready papers (if accepted) will be
limited to 7 (IEEE style) pages. Papers must not have been
previously published or currently submitted for publication
elsewhere. The first page of the draft paper should include:
title of the paper, name, affiliation, postal address, E-mail address,
telephone number, & Fax number for each author. The first page
should also include the name of the author who will be presenting
the paper (if accepted) & a maximum of 5 keywords.
EVALUATION PROCESS:
Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance,
clarity, and soundness.  Each paper will be refereed by
two researchers in the topical area.  The Camera-Ready
papers will be reviewed by one person.
PUBLICATION:
The conference proceedings will be published by CSREA
Press (ISBN) in hardcopy.  The proceedings will be
available at the conference.  Some accepted papers will
also be considered for journal publication (soon after
the conference).  All conference proceedings published
by CSREA Press are considered for inclusion in major
database indexes that are designed to provide easy
access to the current literature of the sciences
(database examples: ISI Thomson Scientific, IEE INSPEC,
DBLP, ...).

The conferences will be held in the Monte Carlo Resort
hotel, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA (with any overflows at other
near-by hotels).  

Re: [iText-questions] pdf print?!?

[Matt Benson]

But you just want it to print to the user's default
(Windows) printer?  You could do it, for example, if
you sent the printer path to the servlet, assuming the
servlet runs on Windows OR you have already set up
your Unix server to be able to print to each of
however many Windows printers may be candidates for
this.  This discussion could get really long though so
I'll leave it at that for now.

But the OP wants to "print it one time with a java servlet".  The code above
will lead to a pile of paper in the server room, while I suspect that the OP
wants it to print on the client side when someone visits a URL that's mapped
to his Servlet.

I've used JavaScript to pop up a printer dialog on a web page, but AFAIK you
can't [easily, without annoying users,] force anything to print from a
Servlet.

Title: RE: [iText-questions] Help required in streaming effect in PDF






It can't be done with the pdf format. Even linearization (that iText doesn't support) requires all the document to be available before starting. Pdf can't be streamed.

[iText-questions] RE: stamped.java example /Merging PDF files

Title: RE: stamped.java example /Merging PDF files






Use PdfReader.getAcroFields() or PdfStamper.getAcroFields(). The positions are in the merged ArrayList in the dictionary key /Rect key. As this is a common request I'll include a method to facilitate the retrieval of the positions and the pages where they are.

If you have a pdf with forms that don't show up in iText you can send it to me privately for inspection.

Best Rgards,

Paulo Soares

Subject:    RE: stamped.java example /Merging PDF files

Well, that's a great question. Just by looking at the PDF file, it contains the forms, but when I use the getAcroForm() method of PdfReader, it returns "null", that means it doesn't contain the forms, right? How do I know a PDF file has field forms? To use the getAcroForm() and see what returns? or any other ways to determine?

In this case, I can't use getAcroForm() to get field forms, how can I find the precise positions for those "check boxes" and "Text fields" to fill out or stamp on them?

Can't thank you enough for your help!

Tom

Subject:    RE: stamped.java example /Merging PDF files

Hello everyone,

 

I'm learning the iText, and played with the examples and very happy with what I saw. This is what I am trying to do:

Input an exist PDF file (with the forms can’t be filled out by hand), and output a PDF file which only has the forms pages from the input file, and it either can't be saved after fill in the form by hand or can't be modified after is filled out and saved. Is this doable? Please someone give me some hints or any examples will be greatly appreciated.

 

The questions I have regarding this problem is:

 

1. In an exist PDF file, how do I know which page has forms?

PdfReader.getAcroFields(). The page numbers are at AcroFields.Item.page. You'll need the iText version at itextpdf.sf.net.

2. How can I change the permission or something on an exist PDF file and change it again when someone saves it?

 The permission decisions must be done before opening the pdf. use setEncryption().

Best Regards,

Paulo Soares

Thank you very much!

I used the getUnderContent(pageNum) of PdfStamper, and it worked on the ones I had problem with text fields. But still some of the check boxes don't work, and I couldn't stamp on top of the check boxes. Is that because of the crop area? How can I get round it?

You can't put content over a field annotation with iText. The way to do it is to read the pdf, flatten the fields, read it again (with the fields flattened) and stamp over it.

Another question is when I try to read an exist pdf file which has forms in the end of the file. But the DumpFields example says "This document has no fields." Does anyone know why this is and how to get around this?
