[iText-questions] Tomcat and PDF
We have a form-server system providing a lot of pdf-forms to the German administrations. This system is running on Linux with Tomcat as application server. Now this system shall be exported to Hungary. There are a lot of character-encoding problems, the most of which are solvable. But there remains one problem we do not understand: If one is changing the language settings of Linux for example from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED], the resultinig pdf-output also changes. Our hypotheses is, that this is a problem of Tomcat, who is replacing characters in accordance with the language settings of Linux. The question now is: How can we prevent Tomcat from replacing characters (all encoding operations should be done by the Java-code inside Tomcat, not by Tomcat itself)? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Tomcat-and-PDF-tf4669021.html#a13337688 Sent from the iText - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [iText-questions] Certificate failed: Cannot be verified against the KeyStore or the certificate chain
I suggest you doing a bit of research how to validate
X.509 signatures, you need the whole certificate chain
in java (bc) to validate the (math) signature and the
certificate itsel.

[iText-questions] one font containing all styles emulate bold, italic or bolditalic
Hi,
I'm using the Microsoft Sans Serif true type font in my code and I want to
emulate bold or italic. I use Graphics2D to paint my text and I don't use chunk.
I found this message in the forum what exactly describes the problem but the
solution is unclear to me.
http://threebit.net/mail-archive/itext-questions/msg04147.html
I create the awt font from file and use the name to register it to pdf.
For the pdf font mapping pseudo code;
String formName = somelocation/fonts/MICROSS.TTF;
PdfTemplate template = contentByte.createTemplate(rect.width(), rect.height());
DefaultFontMapper mapper = new DefaultFontMapper();
FontFactory.register(fontName);
BaseFont pdfFont = BaseFont.createFont(fontName, BaseFont.IDENTITY_H,
BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
Object allNames[] = {pdfFont.getPostscriptFontName(),
pdfFont.getFamilyFontName(), pdfFont.getFullFontName()};
mapper.insertNames(allNames, fontName);
Graphics2D g2d = template.createGraphics(rect.width(), rect.height(), mapper);
When I watch the Set of FontFactory.getRegisteredFamilies() I see the styles
missing compared to Arial.
arial=[Arial, Arial Bold, Arial Italic, Arial Bold Italic]
microsoft sans serif=[Microsoft Sans Serif]
How can I set these styles using FontFactory to emulate bold or italic?
Hopefully this is possible,

[iText-questions] tables and tagged PDF
Hi all! I'm trying to extend my existing iText code in order to get a legal tagged PDF. I had no problems creating a simple (tagged) text document by adding marked content and writing text to the direct content as described in the appendix F in the iText in action manual. But my document contains some complex table structure which I cannot easily create using the low level contructs of iText. The high level api, which I use to construct my tables, however, does not allow me to add tags. So my question is if there's any possibility to combine the construction of marked content sequences with the high level contructs in order to add pdf tags to the content in (nested) table cells? Would it for example be possible to implement an PdfCellEvent that accesses the text canvas of the cell and uses it to add the pdf structure elements to the direct content? If not, is there any other possibility to create tagged content in tables without having to draw the table all by myself? Thanks for help!

[iText-questions] Wrap text around image in RTF not working
Hello,
I have added some text and an image to a new RTF document, and now I
want to wrap the text around the image and align it to the right.
Image.TEXTWRAP is not working. When I change my code to PDF export, it
works right away. I believe I have tried everyting to make the text go
around the picture in RTF using TEXTWRAP in different ways.
As a last solution I changed my code to use an RtfShape, hoping that I
could add my image as an RtfShape. However, in this case I get a
NullPointerException:
Exception in thread main java.lang.NullPointerException

text += ttt tt ;
Document document = new Document();
RtfWriter2.getInstance(document,
new FileOutputStream(/home/henrik/testRTFdocument.rtf, false));
document.open();
Image image = Image.getInstance(/home/henrik/rtfTest.jpeg);
RtfShapePosition position = new RtfShapePosition(3000, 6000, 10500,
4500);
RtfShape shape = new RtfShape(
RtfShape.SHAPE_RECTANGLE, position);
shape.setWrapping(RtfShape.SHAPE_WRAP_LEFT);
shape.setProperty(
new RtfShapeProperty(RtfShapeProperty.PROPERTY_IMAGE, image));
document.add(shape);
Paragraph main = new Paragraph();
main.add(text);
document.add(main);
document.close();
}
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

[iText-questions] Printing problem on PS driver
Dear List, Firstly - iText is a great tool - *thanks* to the developers! After extensive fiddling around to get colourspaces and font quality issues right, I can create a sequence of coloured barcharts in jFreeChart and move them into iText without loss of quality in their font rendering and without the colours all acquiring a strong blue cast. However, the resulting PDFs create an error when I try to print them from Acrobat 7.0.9 on a mono laser printer (specifically a Samsung ML-7050) via the PS driver, but then print happily on the same printer using a PCL 5 or 6 driver. The error message is in two parts - first a window pops up with an exclamation mark an The document could not be printed and an OK button, which when clicked displays another message (without an icon) Could not start print job and an OK to acknowledge. Adobe's website lists a series of workarounds involving flattenign etc at http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=316508 but I'd like to avoid that kind of post-processing if I can... can anyone shed any light on this...?

The reason I say this is because the error message stats that it could be due to an invalid address but, as you know this not to be the case, I am thinking it might be a communication issue that does not have anything to do with the path being invalid.

Re: [iText-questions] one font containing all styles emulate bold, italic or bolditalic
Hi Paulo,
It can't be done with older versions using FontFactory? I will try the new
version out and see if it works, thank you.

in Graphics2D.

Subject: [iText-questions] one font containing all styles
emulate bold,italic or bolditalic
Hi,
I'm using the Microsoft Sans Serif true type font in my
code and I want to emulate bold or italic. I use Graphics2D
to paint my text and I don't use chunk.
I found this message in the forum what exactly describes the
problem but the solution is unclear to me.
http://threebit.net/mail-archive/itext-questions/msg04147.html
I create the awt font from file and use the name to register
it to pdf.
For the pdf font mapping pseudo code;
String formName = somelocation/fonts/MICROSS.TTF;
PdfTemplate template =
contentByte.createTemplate(rect.width(), rect.height());
DefaultFontMapper mapper = new DefaultFontMapper();
FontFactory.register(fontName);
BaseFont pdfFont = BaseFont.createFont(fontName,
BaseFont.IDENTITY_H, BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
Object allNames[] = {pdfFont.getPostscriptFontName(),
pdfFont.getFamilyFontName(), pdfFont.getFullFontName()};
mapper.insertNames(allNames, fontName);
Graphics2D g2d = template.createGraphics(rect.width(),
rect.height(), mapper);
When I watch the Set of FontFactory.getRegisteredFamilies() I
see the styles missing compared to Arial.
arial=[Arial, Arial Bold, Arial Italic, Arial Bold Italic]
microsoft sans serif=[Microsoft Sans Serif]
How can I set these styles using FontFactory to emulate bold
or italic?
Hopefully this is possible,
:Peter

Re: [iText-questions] Printing problem on PS driver
IIRC, Samsung doesn't use Adobe Postscript - it uses a clone. I suspect you are running into issues/bugs/errors in their implementation. Trying telling Acrobat to dumb down the Postscript by choosing a lower PS level in the printer settings.

After extensive fiddling around to get colourspaces and font quality issues right, I can create a sequence of coloured barcharts in jFreeChart and move them into iText without loss of quality in their font rendering and without the colours all acquiring a strong blue cast. However, the resulting PDFs create an error when I try to print them from Acrobat 7.0.9 on a mono laser printer (specifically a Samsung ML-7050) via the PS driver, but then print happily on the same printer using a PCL 5 or 6 driver. The error message is in two parts - first a window pops up with an exclamation mark an The document could not be printed and an OK button, which when clicked displays another message (without an icon) Could not start print job and an OK to acknowledge.

Re: [iText-questions] Limitations of Adobe
Just to clarify a few things... First, as Paulo points out, adding intelligence to a PDF form involves the use of JavaScript. That is the programming/automation language of PDF. Second, there are two types of PDF forms - classic Acro Forms and modern XML-based XFA Forms. Each has pros and cons, though for your needs it sounds like XFA Forms would be a better choice.
