Re: [iText-questions] Unmodifiable radiobuttons/checkboxes in table cell
Hi,
thanks for the quick response.
Please read chapter 8 for more info.
My problem is that im working with the 2007 book. :(
The coordinates of the cell are stored in rect.
With these parameters, it's just a matter of creating the checkbox as is
done in the book.
My problem is, that I quite don't get the connection between the PdfPCellEvent
and
how to add a RadioCheckField into my cell.
More precise:
I dont't know how to get the rect out of the PdfPCellEvent, to dynamically
create a RadioCheckFields within the table. I guess I'm missing something here.
Thanks
Jonny

[iText-questions] How can i set Master Password to No for a PDF
Hi, I am encrypting a PDF (disabling copy and modify) using PdfStamper SetEncyption method. I am passing null to both User and Master password parameters of this method. But when i open the encrypted PDF i still see Master Password set as Yes. As per the guide if Master Password is null it is set to some random value by SetEncryption. But i dont want this to happen.

Re: [iText-questions] how to remove embedded font stream
Okay, IF the font's encoding is not Identity-H, you can often (but not always) get away with removing the font stream. Step 0: Get the font resource dictionary. Step 1: Get the font descriptor dictionary. Step 2: Remove the following keys (only one will be present) PdfName.FONTFILE PdfName.FONTFILE2 PdfName.FONTFILE3 That's it. The font resource dictionary will have an entry, PdName.ENCODING. If that entry is a PdfString, it'll be a standard encoding (they all end with Encoding), the name of a Cmap (no particular standard naming), a stream, or a dictionary. The only thing you REALLY need to worry about are the strings that begin with Identity- (Identity-H and Identity-V), and the streams (custom Cmaps built for that font). Stripping the embedding from a font with one of the above Danger Signs will result in text that cannot be extracted outside of OCR (Optical Character Recognition). In any event, you can end up with text that Looks Awful. If you're willing to accept that risk, then go for it. Replacing a font is likely to produce something that Looks Horrifically Awful unless you rebuild the content stream for that new font. This would be extraordinarily challenging for a PDF Expert, and is for all intents and purposes impossible for someone who is not. To get some idea of why this is so, I suggest you google the words kerning and ligatures, as separate searches... Two different topics. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import legalese.Disclaimer; DisclaimerCardiff DisCard = null; -Original Message- From: Leonard Rosenthol [mailto:lrose...@adobe.com] Sent: Wednesday, December 22, 2010 8:52 PM To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [iText-questions] how to remove embedded font stream No, there is no sample code and it's NOT a trivial exercise.

Re: [iText-questions] How can i set Master Password to No for a PDF
how can i set Master Password to No ? You don't. Use a master password you know, and use that password when you want to merge the PDF documents. Agreed. This need not be a fixed value either. It could be something you compute based on the file name for example... Or based on some data in the PDF itself (XOR the document ID with some properly bizzare chunk of bits... 0xDEADBEEF for example (only not that). You could open the file with the user password, get whatever data you needed, compute the master/owner password, close it, and reopen it with the owner password. Alternatively, you could /not/ encrypt the separate files at all, and only encrypt the merged files. I suspect the individual PDFs will never end up in front of a user on their own, right? If so, protecting them is pointless. You only need to lock down the files that end up in front of a user. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import com.cardiff.disclaimer; DisclaimerCardiff DisCard = null; -- Learn how Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) One Node allows customers to consolidate database storage, standardize their database environment, and, should the need arise, upgrade to a full multi-node Oracle RAC database without downtime or disruption http://p.sf.net/sfu/oracle-sfdevnl ___ iText-questions mailing list iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Many questions posted to this list can (and will) be answered with a reference to the iText book: http://www.itextpdf.com/book/ Please check the keywords list before you ask for examples: http://itextpdf.com/themes/keywords.php
