Hi All,
The following code snippet appears to produce conflicting

code
-
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader (filename);
PdfDictionary dic = reader.Catalog.GetAsDict (PdfName.PAGES);
MessageBox.Show ("name = " + dic.ToString());
if (dic.IsPages())
MessageBox.Show ("is pages");
else
MessageBox.Show ("not pages");
output
---
name = Dictionary of type: /Pages
not pages
Can anyone explain why if dic has been got as a Pages dictionary

Re: [iText-questions] What are those unused objects in a PDFdocument
Not neccessarily!
You could create a new class that inherits from PdfReader and overrides
RemoveUnusedObjects() (unless it's private... but I think it's public).
Yep, sure is.
So your version of RemoveUnusedObjects can do all that stuff I suggested
the first time around.

Subject: RE: [iText-questions] What are those unused
objects in a PDFdocument
Filtered? No. Inaccessible from the root following
various indirect references? Yep. That's why their unused.
If you really don't want to touch the source, you should
be able to step through all the objects before and after
RemoveUnusedObjects, and dump the ones that were removed after the fact.
Here's some pseudocode.
Map allObjects
For each indirect object in the reader
allObjects.put(obj number, string representation);
RemoveUnusedObjects();
for each indirect object in the reader
allObjects.remove(obj number);
for each entry in allObjects
System.out.println(entry.value);
For PdfArrays and PdfDictionaries, you should be able to
use the toString() of the underlying ArrayList or HashMap. For
PdfStreams, you probably just want to note that its a stream unless you
really want to show all the binary data of some image/font/content
stream. The last might be interesting, but the binary gobbledegook of
images and fonts probably won't tell you much.

You could hack the source to dump a

Re: [iText-questions] Add rotation to a page
Prior to creating the imported page, you can get the page's dictionary
and twiddle its rotation.
PdfDictionary pageDict = reader.getPageN(1);
PdfNumber pageRot = pageDict.getAsNumber(PdfName.ROTATE);
PdfNumber newRot = null;
if (pageRot == null) {
newRot = new PdfNumber(90);
} else {
int currRot = pageRot.intValue();
currRot += 90;
currRot %= 360;
newRot = new PdfNumber(currRot);
}
pageDict.put(PdfName.ROTATE, newRot);
I believe you can do this any time before you call pdfCopy.add(), but
I'm not entirely sure. Safest to do it before creating the
PdfImportedPage.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes

Re: [iText-questions] What are those unused objects in a PDFdocument
Filtered? No. Inaccessible from the root following various indirect
references? Yep. That's why their unused.
If you really don't want to touch the source, you should be able to step
through all the objects before and after RemoveUnusedObjects, and dump
the ones that were removed after the fact.
Here's some pseudocode.
Map allObjects
For each indirect object in the reader
allObjects.put(obj number, string representation);
RemoveUnusedObjects();
for each indirect object in the reader
allObjects.remove(obj number);
for each entry in allObjects
System.out.println(entry.value);
For PdfArrays and PdfDictionaries, you should be able to use the
toString() of the underlying ArrayList or HashMap. For PdfStreams, you
probably just want to note that its a stream unless you really want to
show all the binary data of some image/font/content stream. The last
might be interesting, but the binary gobbledegook of images and fonts
probably won't tell you much.

It seems that those unused objects are already filtered when the
document is loaded and the only way to inspect them is to hack the
source code.

You could hack the source to dump a string

Subject: [iText-questions] What are those unused
objects in a PDF document
Hello,
I find that there's a RemoveUnusedObjects method
in the PdfReader class.
It seems that there can be some objects which
are not referenced by other objects and hence are "unused".
Some PDF files, after processed by the
RemoveUnusedObjects, can dramatically reduce to 30% the size of the
original one.
I wondered what's inside those unused objects.
Is it possible to find out what things are in
those removed objects?

Re: [iText-questions] acroform text field does not get hiden injavascript
Ah... a suggestion. If the field annotation itself is big enough,
setting its background color & text color both to white and setting it
read only will have the same effect.
You can adjust the size of an annotation in iText easily enough... say
expand the field by N points in every direction when dealing with OOo
forms.

I then try to set some of the fields to invisible using

Re: [iText-questions] acroform text field does not get hiden injavascript
I suspect the fields are only part field, and part page content.
In other words, the Actual Field Annotation has no borders or
background. What you see "around" the field is actually part of the
page, not the field.
So you cannot make it invisible... at least not without some Very Fancy
Coding on your part.

Subject: [iText-questions] [Book]
Hi
We are going to create a large report (30 or 40 pages)
for our company using iText for Java. The report will have a lot of
static data and images. The report will also have dynamic data and
graphs about the current logged in user. I was wondering what the best
way to handle the static data and images would be. I have looked all
over the internet and cannot find any articles on this subject. I have
also asked the question in a few forums with no real help. These reports
will need to be generated on the fly and returned to the user
immediately, so performance is a must. The report will be served up
using a Java Servlet in a web application.
These are some of my initial thoughts on how to solve
the problem. I would really like some input on what issues other people
have had when doing a report like this so I can write/design a good
solid report that is easily maintained.
1.)We could create a PDF with all the static content
and images. Then open the PDF with Java and insert the dynamic content
and graphs. Is there a way to put place holders in the PDF that I could
use with the Java to insert the dynamic data and graphs (which would be
images).
2.)Place the static data in a database and retrieve
it whenever a report is generated. To me the database design would be
complex. It would have to take into account pages, paragraphs, titles.
It would also have to takes into account images and the placement of the
image on the page.
3.)We could put the static content in an XML file
and cache the content in the Servlet Context when it initializes. This
might help with performance issues. I would think we would still have
the same design issues as the database would have, but might be easier
to maintain.
I am using the iText book as a reference, but did not
see that it covered this particular issue.
Thanks For Your Time
Doug

Hello,
I have a custom font which supports a very few
characters such as A, B and C.
If I set and use this font, It will not print
the D part of ABCD, which seems correct but is it possible, like
browsers, force iText lib to switch to a default font and print that D
char too.
I need this functionality for some custom
Persian fonts. These fonts do not contain English chars definitions and
if I use them, I can not show the mixture of English and Persian texts.

Re: [iText-questions] Unexpected behavior while using Graphics2D
It seems to me that the only way to fix this would be to share the parent's byte stream across all the child objects. Any child drawing to the byte stream would need to have its drawing commands wrapped in whatever clipping/etc was appropriate for that child. And you'd want to track which child drew last so you wouldn't have to wrap Every Individual Instruction. In fact, you'd Have To: Imagine that a child's calls must be wrapped in the following: q 10 10 50 50 re W Q Now try to draw some text. "q clip BT Q" "q clip /F1 10 Tf Q" ... You get the idea. None of the child state changes would make it out of the wrapping 'q/Q'. Further, a child's child's child might need wrappers from all it's parents, not just the immediate parent. This isn't rocket science, but it's certainly not simple either. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import legalese.Disclaimer; Disclaimer DisCard = null; > -Original Message- > From: Lucas Madar [mailto:ma...@samsix.com] > Sent: Tuesday, August 30, 2011 11:15 AM > To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [iText-questions] Unexpected behavior while using Graphics2D > > I'm running in to a problem when I use Graphics2D.create() > and make several child Graphics objects.

Re: [iText-questions] How to update A PushbuttonField on an existing PDF
You're throwing a Rather Large chunk of code at us and then expecting us

I suggest you remove the PDF code from your servlet code. Get it

servlet.
Having said that, nothing in your code is jumping out at me as The

// We create a reader with the InputStream

// We create an OutputStream for the new PDF
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

Hi iText,
First of we are very much interested in using this application
to our product.
Currently we are new to this and still testing this if it could
cater our needs.
What I'm trying to do is to get an existing PDF as stream, then
setting the url of a pushbutton field that is already existing in the
PDF, then showing that PDF with the modified action.
The PDF is displayed but there was no change in the button.
Could you please point me on the right direction on this.
I have attached here the PDF file and the Servlet that supposed
to display the pdf with the modified button.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Nelson

Re: [iText-questions] PDF/A-1a missing structure issue..
You've got text outside marked content operators ("These are some famous
movies by Stanley

/everything/ must be properly marked up. And "properly" has a very
specific definition.
You really need to buy a copy of the PDF/A spec in order to do "1a"
correctly. "1b" isn't all that hard.

Re: [iText-questions] Urgent: AcroFields.setFieldRichValue() doesn't write out rich text
setFieldRichValue() is a partial implementation. The appearance generation code doesn't know anything about the rich value, only the regular value. To get around this, you have to call myAcroFields.setGenerateAppearances(false). Then, when Reader/Acrobat/etc open the PDF, they know they need to generated the appearances themselves. Compliant Viewers will see the rich value and render it. NOTE: This means flattening isn't going to work... not without first being opened by Acrobat, and saved with the rich value drawn in. Or you could fix it yourself. iText can render HTML fragments (which is what the rich text is) to PDF, I just didn't hook it up when I wrote [s|g]etFieldRichValue() because it was an off-the-cuff feature that helped someone at the time. You could even do this sort of thing yourself without diving directly into the iText source: 1) Get the size of the form field in question. 2) In a new document, create a page with that size 3) Use XMLWorker/HTMLWorker to draw the rich value into that new page. 4) Save the new document to a memory stream 5) Import that new document's page and use it as the appearance for the field needing a rich value. Not terribly efficient, but it'll work. PS: I think you'll need to draw the field's borders as well, but that code is fairly simple, and can be found in BaseField.java. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import legalese.Disclaimer; Disclaimer DisCard = null; From: Leonard Rosenthol [mailto:lrose...@adobe.com] Sent: Monday, August 15, 2011 7:12 AM To: Post here Subject: Re: [iText-questions] Urgent: AcroFields.setFieldRichValue() doesn't write out rich text You have the source code to iText - why not just trace into the code and see what's going on??

Subject: [iText-questions] Inaccuracy scaling imported
pages
Hi,
when importing pages, an inaccuracy occurs. Consider the
following example:
public static void main(String[] args)
throws Exception
{
Document doc = new Document(new Rectangle(0, 0,
pt(500), pt(500)));
PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(doc,
new
FileOutputStream("44x42_scaled_blue.pdf"));
doc.open();
PdfContentByte content =
writer.getDirectContent();
PdfReader reader = new
PdfReader("44x42_blue.pdf");
PdfImportedPage page =
writer.getImportedPage(reader, 1);
Image image = Image.getInstance(page);
image.scaleAbsolute(pt(460), pt(440));
image.setAbsolutePosition(0, 0);
content.addImage(image);
content.setColorStroke(new CMYKColor(0, 0, 0,
1.0f));
content.rectangle(0, 0, pt(460), pt(440));
content.stroke();
doc.close();
}
/**
* Convert millimeters to points.
*/
private static float pt(double mm)
{
return (float)(72 * mm / 25.4);
}
In this example, a file, "44x42_blue.pdf" is scaled
slightly to 460x440
millimeters. For comparison, a rectangle of size 460x440
is drawn. If
the file is opened, one can clearly see that the scaled
image and the
drawn rectangle do not match. The difference is almost 2
millimeters in
X direction. This happens with different input files.
The test files as well as the full program are available
from this link:
http://www.mesw.de/downloads/itext_scaling_problem.zip
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Markus

Re: [iText-questions] Problems detecting page sizes of PDF documents
You've assumed that 0,0 is always going to be one of the corners of the
page. Don't.
Particularly with N-up printing, pages can be no where near 0,0. If the
page you're dealing with was intended to be in the 3rd column, 4th row
of a 6x6 "page" page, it's corners could be just about anywhere,
depending on page rotation.
I tend to avoid getPageSizeWithRotation. I get the page's rectangle,
and I get the page's rotation. Much more control that way.

Subject: [iText-questions] Problems detecting page sizes of PDF
documents
Hi everyone, this is my first question.
I'm sorry but I've to skip presentation 'cause I'm pressed ...
The problem I have is the following: I'm trying to manipulate
PDF files (ex. Adding images, adding barcodes etc.).
Usually I don't have big problems but in this case ...
When I read the document page size via code
reader = new
PdfReader(lOriginalFileName);
r = reader.GetPageSizeWithRotation(1);
I read a size corresponding to an A4.
The problem arises because when I read the page size in File -
Properties within Adobe Reader I see 177.8 mm x 228.6 that looks like a
custom size.
What happens is that when I append a barcode based on page size
it's attached outside the page ...
I tried to "save as" the original document using, for example,
this code
Document doc = new Document(new
iTextSharp.text.Rectangle(A4POINTSWIDTH, A4POINTSHEIGHT), 0, 0, 0, 0);
PdfCopy c = new PdfCopy(doc, new
FileStream(lWorkFileName, FileMode.Create));
doc.Open();
PdfReader reader = new
PdfReader(lOriginalFileName);
for (int i = 1; i <=
reader.NumberOfPages; i++)
{
reader.GetPageN(i).Put(PdfName.PAGE,
new PdfRectangle(A4POINTSWIDTH, A4POINTSHEIGHT));
c.AddPage(c.GetImportedPage(reader,
i));
}
doc.Close();
c.Close();
But the resulting document still has the same problem: looks
like an A4 within code, but it's something else, though.
May anybody help me please?
Thanks.
Regards
Massimo

Re: [iText-questions] Different formatted PDF in dev Q Prod systems
*SOMETHING* is always different. And it's ever so much fun finding out what that something is. There are several ways you could include debug information into a PDF. You could build a log (StringWriter, ByteArray*Stream, whatever) and stash that log in the PDF in any number of ways: *You could write the log out as additional pages in the PDF (visible to everyone who opens the PDF). * Stuff it all into a document info field (less visible) * Embed it in a PdfString or PdfStream hidden in the document anywhere you like (all-but-invisible). *Add the log as a file attachment. Your server undoubtedly has its own logging system you could hook into when building PDFs. You could also generate marked content when building your tables. This would require that you be able to access the uncompressed content streams after generating the PDFs to see your debug info. I'm pretty sure you can configure iText to not compress content streams (though it might require tweaking the source, come to think of it), or you can use RUPS or some similar PDF inspection tool to look at the compressed streams. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import legalese.Disclaimer; Disclaimer DisCard = null; > -Original Message- > From: ajayg [mailto:searc...@rogers.com] > Sent: Friday, July 22, 2011 11:18 AM > To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [iText-questions] Different formatted PDF in dev Q > Prod systems > > Hi, > I've an application using itext 2.1.4 rendering pdf on the > fly.

Re: [iText-questions] Rotate barcode
Fun with transformation matrixes. Yay. The problem is that rotation occurs around the origin, 0, 0 (the lower left corner of a PDF page). So if you're rotating the barcode 90 clockwise, it's being drawn off the page, below it in the +x, -y quadrant. To remedy this, I suggest you use AffineTransform. It can generate a transformation that rotates around a given point rather than the origin. You can then get the transformation matrix out of the AffineTransform as an array of floats (doubles?)... The order of these numbers matches the order used by iText in the various PdfContentByte functions that take transformations. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import legalese.Disclaimer; Disclaimer DisCard = null; > -Original Message- > From: bobsyouruncle [mailto:smiths...@hotmail.com] > Sent: Tuesday, July 12, 2011 11:43 AM > To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [iText-questions] Rotate barcode > > Hello, > > I have a pdf template that I want to stamp with some data as > well as a barcode.

Re: [iText-questions] Retrive flatten field with Itext
There Is A Way. 1) Get the bounding boxes of all the fields from the unflattened form. 2) Create a RenderListener <http://api.itextpdf.com/itext/com/itextpdf/text/pdf/parser/RenderListen er.html> implementation that examines the page contents' text bounding boxes to see What Goes Where. Without knowing the fields' locations, it will be VERY HARD to determine which text is from which field... and perhaps "Impossible". Can we see a flattened form? Docusign might be adding marked content when it flattens fields stating which text is from which field... or it might not.

Re: [iText-questions] Why iText can not flatten new fields
The underlying problem, as I understand it:
1) an AcroFields object is created when the PDF is opened.
2) newly created fields are not added to the existing AcroFields.
3) Flattening works on the information in the AcroFields.
All AcroFields.Item's modifier functions are package private, and there's no
way to add an Item from outside the class an Oh Yes There Is.
AcroFields.getFields just hands over its internal name->Item map, so if you
could construct the proper Item object, you could trivially insert it.
Potential solutions (if I'm right):
1)
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(...);
PdfFormField formFieldDict = buildFormField(); // you'll have to manage that
one on your own
PRIndirectReference fieldRef = reader.addPdfObject(formFieldDict);
// add it to the page
PdfDictionary pageDict = reader.getPageN(pageNum);
PdfArray annots = pageDict.getAsArray(PdfName.ANNOTS);
if (annots == null) {
annots = new PdfArray();
pageDict.put(PdfName.ANNOTS, annots);
}
annots.add(fieldRef);
// add it to the doc-level field list
PdfDictionary root = reader.getCatalog();
PdfDictionary acroFrm = root.getAsDict(PdfName.ACROFORM);
PdfArray flds = acroFrm.getAsArray(PdfName.FIELDS);
flds.add(fieldRef); // just tack it on the end.
PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, outStream);
...
This method adds the field to the reader prior to the creation of the
AcroFields object, so that when it works its way through the PDF, it finds your
new field.
2) Modify your copy of the iText source to make the various
AcroFields.Item.add* function public and use them to create a new
AcroFields.Item and add it to the AcroFields' field map.
AcroFields.Item item = new AcroFields.Item();
item.addPage( pageNum );
item.addWidget( formFieldDict );
item.addWidgetRef( fieldRef );
item.addValue( formFieldDict );
item.addMerged( formFieldDict );
item.addTabOrder( fldDictsIndexInAnnotsArray );
acroFields.getFields().put(fldName, item);

Re: [iText-questions] What to set while stamping the PDF for retaining tags described in PDF template
Sadly, no. What screen reader are you using? Some are better than others. You might even be better off trying to scrape out all the tagging information in the stream so as not to confuse it. And writing the code to do this will be Non-Trivial. The tagging info in the page itself is called "marked content". The marked content indexes in the content refer to document-level information from the original PDF. You'd need to locate this hierarchical information, and copy it into your new document, at a location that is Logical. If the page already contains marked content, you'll also need to CHANGE THE CONTENT STREAM (fear!), to reflect these new marked content indexes. This particular change shouldn't be all that difficult to be honest, but its always worth a double-shot of caution whenever you consider such a thing. All the particulars are spelled out in the PDF Reference, chapter 14, sections 6 "Marked Content", 7 "Logical Structure", and 8 "Tagged PDF".

Re: [iText-questions] formatting
Ah. Completely wrong formatting. Appologies.
In general, the formatting script can do what you want. I haven't used
the "built in" formatters myself, mostly because they're not documented
anywhere and therefore Subject To Change Without Notice.
I did notice that there's a corresponding keystroke script... that may
be required for the format script to function properly.

Re: [iText-questions] Shifting content of a page
There sure is. Option 1: PdfImportedPage is a subclass of PdfTemplate. Rather than simply using PdfCopy.addPage(), you can create a new blank page of the correct dimensions, then draw your page as a PdfTemplate with specific coordiates via PdfContentByte. The downside here is that you lose any annotations from the original page. Option 2: With a PdfStamper, set the UnderContent to do a transformation to accomplish the same thing. You should change the Rect of any annotations on the page to match. This would probably require two passes over the offending PDFs. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import legalese.Disclaimer; Disclaimer DisCard = null; From: André Lemay [mailto:lemay.an...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, June 24, 2011 8:42 AM To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [iText-questions] Shifting content of a page Strange problem, but I'll do my best to explain it. What I'm needing to do, is take pages from an existing pdf, and stitch them into a pdf that I'm generating. This is working fine, and I have no problem with it, but the pdf that gets stitched in (or rather certain pages of it) has a quirk which is causing problems. It's MediaBox is set to 27,27,639,819 (so 8.5x11, but shifted 27 point up and right). It has no CropBox defined. The reason it's like this, is that this pdf (from what I'm led to understand, it's created by a third party, so I can't do anything about it) is itself stitched together from other pdfs, and certain pages of it come from source pdfs that are oversized. Normally, this isn't a problem, as the mediabox is set correctly to the part of the pdf that needs to be viewable, and the resultant pdf (after I've stitched things together) looks fine in readers. The problem is that these get sent to a printer (as in a printing company), in a batch (several pdfs generated the same way), and the printer does something to them that changes the cropbox and ends up screwing up the way it comes out. I've checked the raw pdfs in a text editor, and the media/crop boxes for the bad pages are as follows : What I get from the third party : media[27,27,639,819], no cropbox defined What I generated (after stitching it in) : media[27,27,639,819], crop[0,0,612,792] The pdf coming out of whatever the printer is doing : media[27,27,639,819], crop[27,27,639,819] The result of this is that the bottom and left edges of these pdfs are getting cut off. I've tried playing around with changing the media/crop boxes, but with no success, I just end up generating pdfs that have edges cut off or have extra edges that we don't need. What i'd like to know, is if there's some way of shifting all the content of the page down and left by 27 points (then I could just adjust the media box, and still end up showing the correct content), or if there's some way of copying the content within the mediabox of these pages onto a new page (and in so doing, resetting the mediabox coordinates to be 0-based).

Re: [iText-questions] How to extract title / heading from document contents
iText can give you the font name, size, and location of all the text on the page. Without PDF Structure, it is up to you to interpret that information. For a title, you might consider all the text in the largest font on the first page to be the title. Such heuristics will be brittle. You could refine or relax it in various ways to work better with your particular PDFs, but at the end of the day, it will always be possible to find (or create) a PDF that will break your heuristic. A biography of Theodore Roosevelt might be entitled: Speak softly and Carry a Big Stick. A reasonable heuristic could determine this title to be "Carry a Big Stick". And it would be wrong. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import legalese.Disclaimer; Disclaimer DisCard = null; From: Balder [mailto:bal...@redlab.be] Sent: Friday, June 24, 2011 8:31 AM To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [iText-questions] How to extract title / heading from document contents This depends on the PDF, is the PDF Tagged?

What version of iText are you using? The version I listed has been
around for Quite Some Time, well before 5.0. If your version is as old
as I think it is, you'll need to use PdfWriter.PageModeUseOutlines.

Re: [iText-questions] Default open bookmark
There are two possible interpretations of your question: 1) How can I display the bookmark tree when the PDF is opened (probably not what you meant)? myPdfWriter.setViewerPreferences(PdfName.NONFULLSCREENPAGEMODE, PdfName.USEOUTLINES); 2) How can I display a bookmark's destination when the PDF is opened. It's not possible to define the "open action" in terms of a bookmark. But all is not lost, you can define the document open action as a destination, just like you did the bookmark.

Re: [iText-questions] Parallelizing parts of iText.
I don't have any data to back this up, but let me make a few Educated Guesses. What does iText do in series that could be done in parallel? 1) FontFactory.registerDirectories. It opens up every font it can find across a variety of OSes, parses them, and saves various tidbits about each. It can be Very Slow when there are a lot of fonts (or large fonts) on the system. Executing this in a separate thread and only blocking when an as-yet-unknown font is requested could speed things noticably. A given PDF generally doesn't use all that many fonts. 2) new PdfReader(...). Parsing a PDF. Once a PDF's bytes are loaded into memory (which isn't always the case), parsing each object could be done in parallel rather than in series. 3) PdfWriter.close(). It converts each object into PDF syntax and writes them out in series. There are several complexities involed that make this non-trivial to parallelize, but it should be possible. N worker threads each with their own reused write buffer should keep memory use down to something manageable. A thread pool and a matching buffer pool? That's all I can think of off the top of my head. Could you keep us up to date on your progress? I'm looking forward to see what you come up with. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import legalese.Disclaimer; Disclaimer DisCard = null; From: Lorand Szakacs [mailto:lorand.szak...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 07, 2011 3:19 PM To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [iText-questions] Parallelizing parts of iText.

Re: [iText-questions] Appearance of PdfImportedPage objectinconsistent
In this case, it's Adobe. I suspect that Foxit/Others are resetting some-but-not-all of the graphic state when displaying an XObject Form. I say "some" only because you're not saying that they're ignoring your clipping rectangle or transformation matrix. Ignoring the CTM would be Blatantly Wrong, resulting in lots of pointing and screaming. Ignoring other bits of the graphic state is equally wrong, but more subtly so depending on which part of the state we're talking about. Your dash style for example. Drawing an XObject Form implicitly creates a pushState/popState combo, but all the existing state is still there. Ah. PDF Ref 32000_2008, section 8.10.1 "Graphics->Form Xobjects->General". The first paragraph reads thusly: A form XObject is a PDF content stream that is a self-contained description of any sequence of graphics objects (including path objects, text objects, and sampled images). A form XObject may be painted multiple times-either on several pages or at several locations on the same page-and produces the same results each time, subject only to the graphics state at the time it is invoked. Not only is this shared definition economical to represent in the PDF file, but under suitable circumstances the conforming reader can optimize execution by caching the results of rendering the form XObject for repeated reuse. Emphasis added. I suspect that Foxit etc aren't being rigorous enough with the "under suitable circumstances" bit in the last sentence. To drive the point home, the spec further states: When the Do operator is applied to a form XObject, a conforming reader shall perform the following tasks: a)Saves the current graphics state, as if by invoking the q operator (see 8.4.4, "Graphics State Operators") b)Concatenates the matrix from the form dictionary's Matrix entry with the current transformation matrix (CTM) c)Clips according to the form dictionary's BBox entry d)Paints the graphics objects specified in the form's content stream e)Restores the saved graphics state, as if by invoking the Q operator (see 8.4.4, "Graphics State Operators") Except as described above, the initial graphics state for the form shall be inherited from the graphics state that is in effect at the time Do is invoked.

I already thought of that workaround but was hoping for a more "elegant" solution. Apparently there is nothing to completely reset the graphics state to the default state directly? I also figured out that pdf readers are rendering these kind of documents in a different way. Adobe reader for example will render the imported pdf using the current graphics state in the document (resulting in wrong display of image). Foxit reader and others are using the default graphics settings for the imported pdf in the document which results in a correct rendering of the image. I dived into the Adobe pdf reference but cannot figure out which pdf reader is behaving according to the pdf specs at this moment. For now I will use your suggestion.

To do this I use PdfImportedPage. Unfortunately the appearance of the image in the final document is not consistent but seems to be influenced by the current graphics state of the document. When I use for example a dashed stroke in the document the strokes in the imported image also become dashed (in the original image they have been defined solid). A similar issue occurs when text in the imported graphic pdf uses a same font as the text in the document. In the imported pdf all fonts are embedded (the same is true for the final document). In some cases the alignment and spacing of characters differs from the original graphic. It is not possible to change something in the imported images/graphics. Is there a way to force a PdfImportedPage object to be treated as a seperate, independent pdf without being influenced by graphics state of the document? A snippet of the code being used: . contentbyte.saveState(); contentbyte.rectangle(0, 0, 200, 200); contentbyte.clip(); contentbyte.newPath(); PdfImportedPage image = writer.getImportedPage(reader, 1); contentbyte.addTemplate(image, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0); contentbyte.restoreState(); .

Re: [iText-questions] Place text in speacified x y coordinate
It's up to you to give the correct coordinates to align your text with whatever
else on the page you want it aligned.
You might find PdfContentByte.showTextAligned() to be useful. It can
right/center/left align your text based on the coordinate you pass in, and can
apply rotation. However, it still needs the correct coordinates.

Re: [iText-questions] Optional context retrieval
Ah. I was using the "preflight check" find hidden text feature (and in
Acrobat Pro X)... I'm not even sure that particular report exists in X.
At any rate, I think that might be a bug in the "hidden text detection",
which would explain why I cannot find it in 'X'. Those are all spaces
(in a custom encoding).
Here's a line from the content stream:
[({02})-4.99539({01})-4.99539({01})-4.99539({01})-4.99508({01})-4.99508(

The {XX} is how my PDF Inspector Thingy displays non-ascii values. In
this particular font's encoding, the 0x01 is a space.
Not sure who built this file, but everything after the first byte in
that line is worthless crap:
"({02})Tj" would have produced the same results (without confusing
"examine document").

Re: [iText-questions] Problem with stamping certain PDF documents
You don't change the margins, you adapt to them. If you want your text
centered on the page rather than:
float centerX = pageRect.getWidth() / 2f;
float centerY = pageRect.getHeight() / 2f;
you take the actual coordinates into account, not just their relative
positions:
float centerX = pageRect.getLeft() + (pageRect.getWidth() / 2f);
float centerY = pageRect.getBottom() + (pageRect.getHeight() / 2f);
You should get pageRect from reader.getCropBox(pageNum) or
reader.getBoxSize(pageNum, "crop");
Another debugging trick I just thought of when finding a coordinate like
this would be to draw a number of concentric circles in different
colors, so you can see where your coordinate is on the page. Draw the
largest first or it'll cover all the others.
PdfContentByte content = writer.getContent();
float RADIUS_INCREMENT = Math.max(pageRect.getHeight(),
pageRect.getWidth()) / 5;
Color circleColors[2] = {Color.Gray, Color.Black};
for (int i = 10; i > 0; --i) {
content.setColorFill(circleColors[i % 2]; // alternating gray and
black circles
float radius = RADIUS_INCREMENT * i;
content.arc(xCoord + radius, yCoord + radius, xCoord - radius,
yCoord - radius, 0f, 360f);
content.fill();
}

Does anyone know
How can I create a PDF or use a jpg image of a form and
then allow
iTextPDF to "fill out the form" on an Android device ?
I have a form that I want to capture as the background
either PDF or Image
and then allow and android user to use iTextPDF to fill
in the form and save
both the completed form as a PDF and the data filled in
as an XML or Text Document
any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance

Re: [iText-questions] Optional context retrieval
I believe "hidden text" in that context is text that has been drawn with
Text Render Mode 3 (no stroke, no fill). It may include text that has
been clipped as well.
In either case, iText will pick it up.
I see a lot of "unknown character" characters in that screen shot. If
Acrobat cannot successfully extract the text content, iText won't be
able to either.
Can we see the PDF?

I am trying to stamp PDF documents with some text message. It does not seem to be working on **some of the PDF** documents. Please help me solve the issue. Listing down the things I have tried. 1. Changing the content layer. In our service, we are writing to the 'overContent' layer. Hence, this should not be a problem even if the actual content overshoots the margin. I tried adding to 'underContent' layer as well. But, no luck. 2. Absolute positioning for watermarks. The current version of the service uses the width and height of the page to determine where the watermarks have to be positioned. The service also uses the rotation property to position the watermarks. While I was debugging the problem, figured out that rotation was incorrect for the pages in landscape. I tried hard-coding the position but nothing showed up even after that. 3. Changing the text orientation. Tried changing the text orientation of the watermark to vertical. Again, no luck. 4. Ability to edit the PDF. The next thing I tried was to ensure that the PDF file is editable. I was able to add annotations from Adobe Acrobat. No problem with edit-ability. 5. Changing the font. Tried embedding the font used for displaying the watermark. No luck. 6. Checked the PDF properties to see if I can catch anything. (File -> Properties from Adobe reader). All the properties seem to be similar that of the one which works. But, the same code works on all other PDFs. Could this be related to some property of PDF file? Thanks in advance.

Re: [iText-questions] import data field properties to pdf
I was thinking the lack for a update_data_fields corresponded with a similar limitation in iText. Seems to be the case. On the contrary. iText is quite capable of changing PDFs to your heart's content, provided you're willing to Dive Deep into the internal PDF structure. iText also has high-level support for a wide variety of PDF features, including everything in your proposed text format. However, someone has to write a parser for that format and the corresponding iText calls. That hasn't happened. There's nothing in your proposed format that iText can't handle at a higher level. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import legalese.Disclaimer; Disclaimer DisCard = null; From: Tom D.

Here is a summary for the issue for the next searcher: PDF with many many field groups that have the wrong states. I would like to update the states with my text editor for via Gnu/Linux command line. pdftk is an easy to use tool that uses iText. pdftk has dump_data and update_data that allows a users to export the metadata, modify the text file, then update the metadata from the text file. pdftk also has dump_data_fields that your can get a nicely formated list of all the fields and their properties.

Re: [iText-questions] bug on RadioCheckField.CheckType?
Yep. Strange.
In the mean time, you can:
String typeChars[] = {"4", "l", "8", "u", "n", "H"};
myPdfFormField.setMKNormalCaption( typeChars[RadioCheckField.TYPE_* -
1] );
(which is pretty what setCheckType causes in the resulting PdfFormField,
minus setting the font /again/)

Re: [iText-questions] Font rotation in the VerticalText
Options:
Search text and replace '-' and '|' with '|' and '-' respectively prior
to adding it to the VerticalText.
Search the text and add only those characters in a font that swaps them
for you.
Create one or more Type 3 fonts (single byte, so you'd have to do more
text searching to figure out which font to use after your 256th unique
character), and use that font instead.
All the options involve searching your input string[s] prior to adding
them to a VerticalText. I suggest going the "replacement" route.

Re: [iText-questions] Adding input via text boxes to current PDFdocument using .NET
iText can create PDFs with form fields, or add form fields to existing PDFs. But there's a problem with your workflow. Using Adobe Reader, you cannot save form data locally from a PDF... Mostly. The exception is for PDFs that have been "Reader Enabled". You can reader enable a PDF in one of two ways: 1) Save it from Acrobat Pro (I think this was introduced in v8, not sure) with the Proper Settings. 2) Buy an Acrobat Server Thingy from Adobe. Not at all cheap. So saving the form and emailing it has some issues, but might work anyway. As a sure-fire alternative, PDF forms can submit their data over the internet, either in their native FDF, or via an HTML-style POST. I'd think that would be more stream-lined. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import legalese.Disclaimer; Disclaimer DisCard = null; > -Original Message- > From: vandiar [mailto:magus169...@gmail.com] > Sent: Thursday, May 05, 2011 7:10 PM > To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [iText-questions] Adding input via text boxes to > current PDFdocument using .NET > > We are designing an IMS for the University of Louisiana at > Monroe.

Re: [iText-questions] itext, coldFusion, annotations and Pop-Up Notes
You probably just want the /Subject:
PdfString subj = annot.getAsString(PdfName.SUBJECT);
String subjStr = subj.toString();
subjStr = subjStr.substring(subjStr.indexOf('-'));
You'll have to translate that to CF-speak, but I think you get the idea.

Subject: Re: [iText-questions] itext, coldFusion,annotations and
Pop-Up Notes
I agree, I don't mind parsing out the values. If I have the full
content stream, I would just parese it out and get this nissianIQi and
parse it. I originally was able to read in the PDF via coldfusion's pdf
tag. However after someone did a save as on the pdf I lost part of the
stream.
Forgive me as I am new to this, so what you are saying is I can
get the content stream through something like
/* Read the PDF */
reader =
CreateObject("java","com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfReader").init(expandPath("t
est.pdf"));
/* Get the Page Dictionary object, I think I need this to read
the stream? */
pageDict = reader.getPageN(1);
/* Create a pdfname object */
pdfname = createObject("java","com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfName");
Now I see the dictionary has a getAsStream
however pageDict.getAsStream(pdfName) doesnt work.
Thanks for the help and patience.

Re: [iText-questions] itext, coldFusion, annotations and Pop-Up Notes
Here's the edited dump from an internal tool of one of those

2 AP (CosDict)
291 C (CosArray)
295 CreationDate = D:20110504082511-05'00' (CosString)
296 F = 4 (CosInteger)
297 M = D:20110504082511-05'00' (CosString)
298 NM = 05ff164d-f023-4832-9f58-497e4a7f2e50 (CosString)
299 Name = nissanIQi-01K (CosName)
300 P (CosDict& 10)
(this caused my tool to go up to the page, then spider down to
Everything Else on the whole page... lots of irrelevant crap)
1215 Popup (CosDict& 38 line 476)
1216 Rect (CosArray)
1221 Subj = nissanIQi-01K (CosString)
1222 Subtype = Stamp (CosName)
1223 T = ganningb (CosString)
1224 Type = Annot (CosName)
It looks like you need to get the Name or Subject and parse out the bit
you want.

"flags" is a PdfNumber... It has no implicit "int" conversion, so you
must explicitly call one of the *Value() functions.

Re: [iText-questions] AcroFields.Item field - how to get "is it hidden"?
I think he means PdfAnnotation.FLAGS_HIDDEN.
>PdfDictionary pdct = field.GetMerged(k);
PdfNumber flags = pdct.getAsNumber(PdfName.F);
if (flags & PdfAnnotation.FLAGS_HIDDEN != 0) {
// it's hidden
} else {
it's visible.

Re: [iText-questions] How to set line spacing for a multi-line formfield?
Not really, no. You can set the TL (Text Leading) in the /DA (Default Appearance) string, but there's no guarantee that it'll be used. Some versions of Reader do, but I think the most recent do not. I haven't tried messing with the /DA in a while now so I can't tell you which versions will or won't work in detail (though I can say that Acrobat X ignores TL). You can also build a custom appearance for the field while filling it. You'd have to apply that appearance to the AcroFields.Item.widget's manually, with PdfDictionary.put(), or with Item.writeToAll()... or rewrite some portion of TextField to look for a TL command in the DA and use it (which would make use of the normal field appearance generation code). No matter how you apply a custom appearance like that, your still at the mercy of the PDF viewing app (Reader) if the user changes a field value. Finally, you could chain together several 1-line text fields with script. Ugly hack, I know... but it would allow you to control the spacing between them, and let users change the value. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import legalese.Disclaimer; Disclaimer DisCard = null; From: Eric Chow [mailto:eric...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, May 02, 2011 9:19 PM To: Post all your questions about iText here Subject: [iText-questions] How to set line spacing for a multi-line formfield?

Re: [iText-questions] character spacing in vertical text
You should be able to get it from the trunk right now and try it out. I didn't
really... /test/ anything. I went "Klingon Programmer" there for a moment:
http://gradha.sdf-eu.org/textos/klingon_programmer.en.html
"What is this talk of 'release'? Klingons do not make software 'releases'. Our
software 'escapes' leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance
people in its wake."
Yeah, like that. ;)

Re: [iText-questions] character spacing in vertical text
It would appear that a chunk's character spacing is ignored in the current
version of VerticalText:
void writeLine(PdfLine line, PdfContentByte text, PdfContentByte graphics) {
PdfFont currentFont = null;
PdfChunk chunk;
for (Iterator j = line.iterator(); j.hasNext(); ) {
chunk = j.next();
if (chunk.font().compareTo(currentFont) != 0) {
currentFont = chunk.font();
text.setFontAndSize(currentFont.getFont(), currentFont.size());
}
BaseColor color = chunk.color();
if (color != null)
text.setColorFill(color);
text.showText(chunk.toString());
if (color != null)
text.resetRGBColorFill();
}
}
In order to obey character spacing, we'd need to add something like this:
float charSpacing = chunk.getCharacterSpacing();
if (charSpacing != 0f)
text.setCharacterSpacing(charSpacing);
text.showText(chunk.toString());
if (charSpacing != 0f)
text.setCharacterSpacing(0f);
It would be cleaner to add a "current character spacing" member variable, and
only set the characer spacing when the chunk requested something different.
Ditto for the text color for that matter... Though changing the text (fill)
color extends outside the bounds of a given text block, so there's definitely a
sound reason for the current implementation.
None the less, I've written up a quick patch that will use character spacing if
present. It also uses PdfDocument's behavior where a missing character spacing
attribute in a given chunk simply means "don't change anything". That way you
can just set the spacing in the first chunk and forget about it rather than
setting it for every single chunk.

If you've already called FontFactory.registerDirectories(), then yes.

Re: [iText-questions] Portability of BaseFont.createFont (was Re:Purpose of book/{build, examples}.xml?
This is what FontFactory.registerDirectories() is for.
RegisterDirectories calls FontFactory.registerDirectory() on a wide
variety of commonly used font paths:
public int registerDirectories() {
int count = 0;
String windir = System.getenv("windir");
String fileseparator = System.getProperty("file.separator");
if (windir != null && fileseparator != null) {
count += registerDirectory(windir + fileseparator +
"fonts");
}
count += registerDirectory("/usr/share/X11/fonts", true);
count += registerDirectory("/usr/X/lib/X11/fonts", true);
count += registerDirectory("/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts", true);
count += registerDirectory("/usr/share/fonts", true);
count += registerDirectory("/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts", true);
count += registerDirectory("/Library/Fonts");
count += registerDirectory("/System/Library/Fonts");
return count;
}
The "true" param tells registerDirectory to scan all subdirectories, so
it would find "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts".
The only problem with registerDirectories is that it takes time directly
proportionate to the number and size of the fonts on your system to
execute. If you're relaunching the app that uses iText on a regular
basis rather than loading it once, registerDirectories can consume the
majority of your execution time.
YMMV.
Looking at the above code, you could add a "windir" environment variable
to just about any system with a "/fonts" folder and be Good To Go. We
might want to consider a more general enviromental variable for this
very occasion, or perhaps a specific list of fonts.

A single reply will suffice in the future.

Hi Leonard,
The code doesn't throw any error, it executes fine but there is no

My code works fine for normal pdf i.e pdf without digital signature.
I would really appreciate any help.

Oh, and setting the pdf version to "1.0" is probably a bad idea. That
might be ignored due to using append mode, but it wouldn't hurt to get
the version from your reader and preserve it.

Re: [iText-questions] How to retrieve AcroFields Items in order?
"Tab" order as listed in the Items is really just their order in the annotation array. It doesn't respect the /Tabs entry in the source page[s]. The good news (such as it is) is that the annotation order is also the Z-order. That rarely matters... But when it does, it DOES. Writing a Comparator that took two Items and sorted them by tab order (and page number?) would be trivial. A Comparator that sorted top-to-bottom/left-to-right would be a little tougher, but manageable. Sorting by Structure is relatively involved. IIRC, you can't just sort by MCID. You have to traverse the structure tree, but at least you can use the MCID to look up where to find a given Thing in that tree. The PDF Reference spells out how you're supposed to look up such things, in chapter 14, sections 6 (Marked Content), 7 (Logical Structure) and 8 (Tagged PDF).

Re: [iText-questions] PDF/A Validation
Okay, the PDF/A1-b scanner in Acrobat X Pro, says this in the "trigger
values" section:
XMP property is predefined but is not used in accordance with the
definition
Trigger values
Property existints in PDF/A standard: is true
dc:description[1]
dc:title[1]
Predefined XMP property in PDF/A standard matches definition: is not
true
dc:description{1]
dc:title[1]
What exactly that means is a tad confusing. Fortunately, I have a copy
of the PDF/A spec handy... And that wasn't much help. Here's the
relevant raw XMP:
http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/";>
application/pdf
QPJOBLOG
QPJOBLOG
Created with iText on
iSeries
BeppeCostagliola
Note that the subject and creator are fine... Both have containers.
"title" and "decription" are not, both contain . I suspect
that if I were to replace "alt" with "bag" in a binary editor, it'd
pass. Lets find out, shall we?
Nope. That didn't help. And I'm fresh out of ideas.
NOTE: I used a BINARY editor, not a text editor. PDF is a binary
format, byte offsets count. Text editors have a nasty habit of making
EOL characters consistent across the entire file. When that file
contains compressed binary data, they tend to mistake some portion of
that data as EOLs and "fix" them, resulting in broken PDFs. There are
lots of free binary editors floating around... I used "Frhed", "free hex
editor", from sourceforge just now. It's fine, but I'm sure there are
better ones out there.
Leonard might have an idea or two, but I'm stumped.
