Hello Paolo & Bruno,

is the setKerning-feature planned to be integrated in i.e. Chunks,
Phrases, PdfPCells, ... in one of the next versions of iText?

Subject: [iText-questions] BaseFont.setKerning()



Hello everyone,

this time I've a problem with BaseFont.setKerning(). Here's the
code-snip:

PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new
FileOutputStream("test.pdf"));
document.open();
PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContent();
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(1);
   
Font font = FontFactory.getFont(FontFactory.TIMES,
BaseFont.WINANSI, true, 20, Font.NORMAL, Color.GREEN);
BaseFont bf = font.getBaseFont();
bf.setKerning('t', 'e', 30);
   
Phrase phrase = new Phrase("test", font);

PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell(phrase);
cell.setFixedHeight(100f);
table.addCell(cell);
table.setTotalWidth(300);
table.writeSelectedRows(0, 1, 100, 700, cb);

document.close();

In the generated PDF there's no kerning between the 't' and the 'e'. Any
ideas?

Thanks for your help!


Best regards,

Martin

[iText-questions] Maxicode and PDF417

2004-12-02 Thread tle 
Hi,
I have two questions regarding these 2D barcode formats:
1. It seems that Maxicode is not supported by iText. Is there
any plan to add Maxicode in the future? (I do know there are
Maxicode projects out there. I just wonder about a more 
'integrated' solution that's all).

2. It seems rather unintuitive that BarcodePDF417 is not
a subclass of Barcode. I suppose the reason is because
Barcode is designed to be 1D. But it seems to me the 2D
class does share many of the same interface with 1D Barcode
(for example setText/setCode, setHeight,...). If we should
adhere to a strict design, can we have something like
a grand Barcode super-interface, and then two sub-interface's
(or abstract classes) Barcode1D and Barcode2D? Then
we can treat barcode instances in a more ubiquitous way,
for example:
Barcode bc = (Barcode)Class.forName(clsName).newInstance();
...
bc.getImage();

which right now is impossible because BarcodePDF417 does
not share a common ancestor.
Thank you.


BarcodePDF417

Paulo,
I create a pdf that consist of: text | an image | text. The image does not fit 
on the current page
after the initial text was added. What happens now is that the text that should 
follow the image is
then printed on the current page and the image is moved to the next page. Is 
there a way to avoid
this by behaviour and leave a blank space on the current page and then move the 
image to the next
page followed by the rest of the text.

I know this question was posted before but I do not understood the suggested 
solution then.

Thanks a lot!

It's trivial to get the other boxes. To get the art box, for example:

PdfReader reader = ...; 
PdfDictionary page = reader.getPageN(1);
PdfArray artBox = (PdfArray)PdfReader.getPdfObject(page.get(PdfName.ARTBOX));
Rectangle rect = null;
if (artBox != null)
rect = PdfReader.getNormalizedRectangle(artBox);

RE: [iText-questions] appending a file-pdf to a stream-pdf

2004-12-02 Thread Paulo Soares 



There is no such thing as a "streamed pdf". To add more pages you 
need to have the pdf in memory or in file. Note that all the PdfReader 
constructors, except when reading from file, read all the pdf to an internal 
byte array first.

The latestet version of iText (1.1) supports all boxes.

usage:
Rectangle trimBox = pdfReader.getBoxSize(pageNumber, "trim");
(names: "media", "crop", "trim", "bleed", "art")

I need to know the trim-, crop-, bleed and artbox of an imported page for an
impostion-programm for pdf. I saw getCropBox in PdfReader.
Is it planned, to implement the other Boxes in the PdfReader, PdfPage and
PdfImportedPage?

The Boxes above are characteristics of visual pages.
So programming for me would be more easy, if a PdfImportedPage would have
these members.
Same with PdfPage.

I would programm this for you, if you think this will be good for itext.
I don't know the code very well because I use itext as black box.
So I think to change PdfReader, PdfImportedPage and PdfPage and some
constants will cost half an hour for you.
I will need one ore more days because I don't know the details of itext and
have to inspect the code very well.

For the moment I'm working on projects for Ghent University that don't

but this will probably change in the near future as some new projects 
with lots of
document generation will be started next year.
Anyway: before I start writing chapters I want to make an XSL that not only
generates the chapters from XML to HTML, but also an XSL that constructs
the build.xml file for the examples of every chapter (with correct 
CLASSPATHs).

 Would you like any community help writing / reviewing it?
All help is welcome of course!

[iText-questions] appending a file-pdf to a stream-pdf

2004-12-02 Thread Allistair Crossley 



Hi 
All,
 
I am using 
JasperReports to generate a PDF on-the-fly that I stream to the client. However, 
before I stream it, I need to somehow add a PDF from a file (terms and conds) to 
it. 
 
Does iText 
have any dynamic way of manipulating an existing stream? This is the call I make 
to send it to the user...
 
JasperRunManager.runReportToPdfStream(getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream( "com/comp/newmedia/intranet/pof/dto/pof.jasper"), 
response.getOutputStream(),parameters, 
lineItemDataSource   );
 
I am 
guessing not but maybe I get lucky!
 
Cheers, 
Allistair.

You have all that is needed. Do as follow:

PdfArray sep = ...; // 11 0 obj
PdfArray lab = ...; // 12 0 obj
sep.getArrayList().add(2, lab);

Extend PdfSpotColor and return sep in getSpotObject().

[iText-questions] Black and white image issue

2004-12-02 Thread dee3lmo 
Hello,

I encounter some troubles with a black&white images.
The image is of the com.lowagie.text.Image type and is
created using Image.getInstance('a java.awt.Image',
new Color(0, 0, 0)) The 'a java.awt.Image' object is a
black and white picture.

Adding the image to the document goes fine, and I can
open the PDF document. The troubles encounter when I
print the PDF document. Then I see that the black and
white picture is not just only black and white.
However the PDF document on my screen only shows the
black and white colors, the printer prints the picture
with black, white and gray colors.

How is it possible that the picture on my screen
differs from the picture on the paper?

Thanks in advance,
dee3lmo

[iText-questions] question re iText

2004-12-02 Thread Marvin Shapiro 
I have successfully used iText to create a rather complicated PDF file, 
but now I am having trouble getting the same PDF-writing program to 
work on the web.

My web iText program compiles fine, but when I run it I get error 
messages indicating that it does not have access to the iText-102b.jar 
file, even though (I think) it is part of the jar file.

I thought that maybe the "com." in, e.g., "import com.lowagie.text.*" 
is part of the problem, i.e. maybe the lowagie import statements are 
not working.

What does that "com." mean to Java, as far as telling my program where 
iText is?

Or do you have any other ideas of where the trouble can lie?
Thanks again for your help.

[iText-questions] image masking

2004-12-02 Thread casildo 
I am trying to take one image and create a mask for another image but seem
to be getting a parsing error when the PDF is generated. Below is a snipet
of the code.

//Two tone mask: black and white.
Image mask= Image.getInstance(new URL("http://"+imageURL+"mask.gif";));
mask.makeMask();
mask.setInvertMask(true);

Image pic = Image.getInstance(new URL("http://"+imageURL+"pic.gif";));
pic.setImageMask(mask);
doc.add(pic);

Am I missing something?

Do I need to convert the mask object to
Image temp= Image.getInstance(new URL("http://"+imageURL+"mask.gif";));
byte[] maskArray = temp.getOriginalData();
Image mask = Image.getInstance(widthOfMask, heightOfMask, 1, 1,
maskArray);


Is there any code example with a mask  .gif and picture  .gif

Thank you
Casildo

[iText-questions] still can't solve my problem!!!!! pdfspotcolor problem

2004-12-02 Thread color_prepress 
Here is part of my source PDF file.



/Resources << /ColorSpace << /CS0 11 0 R >> /ExtGState << /GS0 7 0 R >> >>



11 0 obj

[ /Separation /myOrange 12 0 R << /FunctionType 2 /Domain [ 0 1 ] /C0 [ 100
0 0 ] /C1 [ 55 58 80 ]

/Range [ 0 100 -128 127 -128 127 ] /N 1 >> ]

endobj



12 0 obj

[ /Lab << /WhitePoint [ 0.9642 1 0.82491 ] /BlackPoint [ 0 0 0 ] /Range
[ -128 127 -128 127 ] >> ]

endobj



above is source pdf which contain this spotcolor information (name as
"myOrange") include LAB value.and so on.

Now what I want to do is, I use pdfreader read this source pdf and place it
in contentbyte.

Then I need to show some text by using this spotcolor.(so maybe I need to
extract this whole information and become as PdfSpotColor object or a whole
PdfArray out then "link it" by using indirect reference to "link" to this
color Object so that my new text will show in this color.

I not able to use PdfSpotColor to do that. It can't capture back the data
from pdf source and contruct as new PdfSpotColor object.

using contentbyte available method will only show the text in either CMYK
value ..

so any suggestion? more detail will help me a lot

thanks.

How do I can do it by using itext?
