Re: [iText-questions] some questions
Didn't know that and would've answered them. Paulo on the repeating footer I'd also consider encapsulating the rendering code in a function and pass the document object and/or calls to the internal bytes. Then use absolute positioning for a table (or anything else) that's called before creating a new page or closing the document to ensure the z-order is always on top, though you shouldn't write in that space anyway. I've found this is more useful than the header and footer functions: results are the same but more configurable. Michael.

Re: [iText-questions] What action is requred in terms of License
People -- Call or write to Bruno's sales agent. If the cost/benefit of what iText offers doesn't make economic sense explain to him why it makes sense for Bruno's company to agree to different terms. For example, if the up-front amount is too high because you need the revenue from your software sales explain that. I can't say he'll agree but I've spoken to him and he is a long-term veteran in software sales, who understands the economics and cycles of software, and that neither Bruno nor anybody working with him wants to put you out of business. Forking the old code-base is a bad idea for two reasons. The first, like Bruno explained, is technical complexity. The second is much worse though: think about the message it sends to open-source authors. I can't think of any worse precedent than a bunch of people who forked a GPL license (or whatever the former license was) because they were too cheap to pay reasonable licensing fees. Additionally the original code-base may have accidental IP landmines -- contributions that weren't fully licensed -- that could be a lot more expensive long-term if your product does well. That was a problem with Linux early on, though many don't remember. Linus's team (and Red Hat and others), like Bruno, cleaned up the code. There were still legal challenges that cost a fortune but IBM, Novell, and others (thanks Google!) bore the brunt of the financial and logistical cost to blast them away; they're unlikely to extend that favor, which literally cost tens of millions of dollars, to people who refuse to pay reasonable licensing fees on iText. A third reason that needs explaining, more mushy but still legitimate, is Bruno himself. He's incredibly modest and soft spoken but has a young child and is working three jobs. I don't know how old many of the people writing are but there's a certain amount of fairness and respect to him that's being overlooked. As we get older and develop lives we should be paid for our work; able to live off it. I personally think Bruno should consider avoiding the headaches and just selling the whole code-base, then working for, Adobe or another large software company. Any of the major software vendors -- especially Adobe, MS, Apple, and probably Google, IBM, and others -- would happily have him and give him support, allow him to work a schedule that's more reasonable, and financial security. But he doesn't do that because of his devotion to open-source. Bruno and his team have worked hard and turned out a great product. Talk to his sales agent and listen to what he has to say. If the fees will never work for your product you may want to ask them why: you stand to get some good advice on software fees (hint: sometimes higher fees actually increase sales, which is counter-intuitive but well documented). Finally, look at Adobe's fee structure for client and server-side and embedded PDF generation technology. Michael.

Re: [iText-questions] What action is requred in terms of License
Then tell them what the project is and what you can afford. Seriously -- that applies for all software components. If you're working for a Fortune 1000 call the person who licenses software and ask them to work something out. If you're working for a smaller company, or on your own, know that if you talk to virtually any software company they'll work within your budget constraints, as long as those constraints are reasonable. That's not just the itext licensing partner but Oracle, Microsoft, IBM ... as long as you're not BS'ing them they'll all work with you. They want you to do well so that you use their product in bigger projects, or pay them more as you grow. They make nothing if they demand fees you can't pay and don't use their product(s). Since the incremental cost for software is virtually zero there's little to lose and lots to gain once you're locked-in.

Re: [iText-questions] Create pages virtually and then write them out?
This is called impositioning; it's a common function for printers to minimize paper use dating back hundreds of years. There are plenty of ways to imposition n-up pages via itext; just look them up. Or use a transform for every other page in your program. Or write a two half-size PDF's and place them on a big PDF. Or use one of the tools written impositioning multiple pages to a PDF. Or use your printer driver to do this. As for counting them during production add a counter to the loop that's producing them. I don't know about others but I hesitated and did a week of testing before thinking about wasting Bruno's time when I found a bug in the tab-chunk mechanism. I verified the bug (tab chunks behave erratically with justified text) with many fonts, many tab chunk sizes, many text samples, with and without characters. Bruno decided not to fix the because the complexity of the fix outweighed the benefit to most, and there are workarounds, a decision I understand and respect. But -- and this is what I'm getting at -- I uploaded a clean, clear, concise code sample and a PDF illustrating the bug and spent a lot of time verifying it wasn't my system and could be reproduced. I'm pointing this out not to whine about my tabbing but (there are plenty of workarounds; submitted it mainly to bring to his attention) but to try to show the level of diligence people should go through before submitting questions. Please try to do the work on your own and leave the itext authors to write itext. I'm not an itext author but have worked with programatically generated PDF for years and don't mind answering questions to save their time.

Re: [iText-questions] Create pages virtually and then write them out?
Thanks Bruno!!! The workaround I was using was dorky but effective enough for the form letters I generate. The problem came from letters where the first line (Dear Whoever) had a flush-left margin but subsequent paragraphs started with tabs but were justified. My initial workaround was to discourage/disallow clients from justifying the body of their letters; use left-aligned text, or justify the entire line. One complained (understatement) so I made a Chunk using the same font/size with spaces in it to approximate a tab; sloppy but effective. Put on my own to-do list parsing the paragraphs and using setIndent eventually which seems cleaner (they set the text through a different interface; I read, parse, substitute, and generate letters .. mail merge on steroids -- jobs can have hundreds of different templates). One thought I had: why does setIndent not exhibit the same problem? Isn't it doing essentially the same thing? I was going to yank down the sources and try to figure it out but then got in trouble for obsessing on my perfect tabs so moved on. Michael. After the first test, it was a won't fix situation. But afterwards, I did a second test, and now there's an almost fixed situation. The code sample you've made hasn't been thrown away yet.

[iText-questions] Tab chunk problem?
Hi. I've discovered what I suspect is a bug with tab chunks and
justified column text. Depending upon the size of the tab chunk
sometimes the text juts out to the right of the column. The same code
works just fine when the tab is set to different sizes; that is the
line justifies without jutting out.
There aren't any patterns I've seen; you can adjust the tab size up or
down and sometimes it will jut out and other times it will justify.
I've also tried with several different fonts; my sample uses Courier
but I've tried other fonts and experience the same behavior. I've
tried several different incantations of the same code but the behavior
appears in all of them.
I've searched throughout the web, have the book, but don't see this
addressed. I've figured out crude work-arounds but, after some
thought, decided this is worth posting about. I'm attaching the PDF
this generates, though it can be run to create the same one.
