Re: [iText-questions] HTMLWorker & Alignment
I actually did read that, that's why I wrote in the last email "By the way, the HTMLWorker only generates about 10% of the content within the program. The rest is all using normal Chunks, Paragraphs, etc. " I have exactly what you said, a few fields that users can input html and then that gets inserted into the PDF document. The problem is that they usually enter in a few paragraphs. I see you're meaning just one line fields. There's no way to use another program to parse the html and the insert it into a PdfPTable right? Otherwise I'll get to work on a solution stripping down the extra whitespace and post what I come up with for others! Thanks again for all the hard work!

For starters, your getting your AcroFields object from the reader.
You should get it from the stamper:
AcroFields acroFields = stamper.getAcroFields();
But I don't know if this will be sufficient to remove the signature.

[iText-questions] PHP port in the works
Dear Bruno, dear Paolo, I want to inform you that some weeks ago I started porting iText to PHP. The plan is to lower the prerequisites for running iText on shared servers, so every webmaster can make use of the library without needing a Java environment. For some reasons, several PHP-based CMS have postponed or even dropped PDF support in the last years (this includes the award winning Drupal CMS that I've been contributing to for years). The reasons include: - both their custom classes and available free PHP classes were (and still are) not powerful enough for even the most basic purposes - using iText over a Java-PHP bridge would have significantly raised the CMS' prerequisites and therefore posed barriers for wide adoption I believe that a PHP port can help spreading iText and more generally Open Source PDF generation to a wider audience. While major, professional websites already use the free iText library (Java or .NET) or could do so, commercial PHP classes are still widely used. At this point about one third of the classes have been rawly ported to PHP 5, and even the raw port continues to be major work. The following steps would be some architectural questions, including the question how close PHP-iText should follow the original Java iText. Finally, apart from a different syntax, both PHP's architecture and built-in functionality considerably differ from Java and the .NET platforms in some aspects, which also has impacts on good practices. This includes: no true overloading, weak typing, dynamic handling of variables' size, few built-in objects, limitations in type-casting between custom objects, etc. p.p. I'm not even sure if this list includes all of the more important differences. So there is still a long way to go, and it's even hard to say for sure, that the work will lead to a working and satisfactory result. I will definitely know more in a few weeks. At the moment I don't see much sense in sharing the still severely broken code with the community. However I will immediately contribute the code to a VCS as soon as the port is working to some extent. Also, I'm open to discuss this and all other questions. I'd also be very happy about suggestions, ideas, and answers on the questions raised above. Feedback on the general idea would definitely help me keep devoting considerable amounts of time into the port work.

[iText-questions] acroform spanning multiple pages
Hi,
I am not understanding something fundamental here. When I
create an Acroform across multiple pages, it always renders the fields
on the last page only. I use 2 examples, one from the book (with
modifications to increase rows), and one of my own. They both
demonstrate my problem.

Re: [iText-questions] Removing a signature thoroughly (acroFields.removeField not sufficient?)
You can't use a Stamper, AFAIK. It always does an incremental update save.
Why would you want to encrypt files in a DMS? Why not use the native DRM
features of the DMS to secure the files?

Why would you want to remove a signature? And do you have the rights to do so
(eg. Are you the signatory)?
After removing the field, be sure to do a FULL save on the PDF and not an
incremental one.

I remove the signature with acroFields.removeField and write the document back
to disk using the pdfstamper. Now the signature is gone (acrobat says there are
no signatures in the newly written document), but I still cannot change the
security policy of the document.
What I want to do is to open File->Properties in Acrobat Pro v8, go to the
Security tab and choose "Password Protection" in the combobox. Yet, Acrobat
shows a message "the security policy cannot be changed because the document is
signed or certified", although there are no security restrictions applied to
the document (as displayed on the Security of the properties dialog), and
although all signatures have been removed.
Note: I'm using the German version of Acrobat, so some of my translations given
above may not match the english version exactly.
Any ideas how to remove this remainder of the signature with itext? I can
provide more code snippets, acrobat screenshots or example pdf files if that
helps.

Esto significa que: - no te puedo garantizar que la dev-team de iText te dará soporte, aunque sea pagando - no te puedo dar soporte Saludos, alexis On 22/01/2009, sylkat wrote: > > Hello, this is my first post, > > First of first, i´m a spanish man, and my english is not good. > > I have to migrate a application coded in java with itext.0.90. > > I am having a lot of problems updating the itext0.90 to itext1.2. > > The code is in java and the IDE is websphere, actually the app is running > in a WAS server. > > I can´t update the itext library to the last version because i´m a simple > programer and the client-company only supports itext 1.2. > > The problem is in the alignments of the text on the cells, with the new > version (itext1.2) the text is not in right position. > > I supose that problem is in deprecated alignment methods but the > application is very big and there are a lots of pdf´s, I'm going crazy!!! > > And the question is, if someone has this problem and if is there any > solution to update itext, i´m refer to new methods of aligment, etc > > I have other problems but the alignments is the priority problem. > > Best regards to all. > > > > > > > -- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: > SourcForge Community > SourceForge wants to tell your story. > http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword > ___ > iText-questions mailing list > iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions > > Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php > -- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword___ iText-questions mailing list iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php
Re: [iText-questions] Removing a signature thoroughly (acroFields.removeField not sufficient?)
Why would you want to remove a signature? And do you have the rights to do so (eg. Are you the signatory)? After removing the field, be sure to do a FULL save on the PDF and not an incremental one.

[iText-questions] Hi everybody
Hello, this is my first post, First of first, i´m a spanish man, and my english is not good. I have to migrate a application coded in java with itext.0.90. I am having a lot of problems updating the itext0.90 to itext1.2. The code is in java and the IDE is websphere, actually the app is running in a WAS server. I can´t update the itext library to the last version because i´m a simple programer and the client-company only supports itext 1.2. The problem is in the alignments of the text on the cells, with the new version (itext1.2) the text is not in right position. I supose that problem is in deprecated alignment methods but the application is very big and there are a lots of pdf´s, I'm going crazy!!! And the question is, if someone has this problem and if is there any solution to update itext, i´m refer to new methods of aligment, etc I have other problems but the alignments is the priority problem. Best regards to all. -- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword___ iText-questions mailing list iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php

Re: [iText-questions] HTMLWorker & Alignment
Wow! In all this time, I never considered that HTMLWorker would be working any differently than a browser would (which ignores all white space outside of tags). So basically all white space between tags must be eliminated. That's what I'll have to rework our editor for then, thanks! I did not find this noted in the book or anywhere else online. Did I miss something? Any suggestions on how to accomplish this as it won't be easy as you often have tags within tags. By the way, the HTMLWorker only generates about 10% of the content within the program. The rest is all using normal Chunks, Paragraphs, etc. The only problem then I see is that the Paragraph tag only creates one carriage return instead of two. See http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_paragraphs2 for what I mean. I erased all the whitepace and newlines in my example and it came out much better. What I thought was automatic paragraph indention was actually extra whitespace the editor added to make the source code look clean. Thanks again for the clarity! I finally have something I can start working on.
