Re: [iText-questions] finding the position of the end of text in a PDF.
You want to re-flow a PDF document. That can't be done. Not in iText, not with other tools. The closest you can come to what you're asking for is deleting blank pages. But moving existing text and elements to new locations is not possible. ---mr. bean pcole wrote: Hi I'm trying to remove the blank section on the end of a pdf I'm reading in so that when I display it on the screen the blank section of the existing pdf will not be shown. for example if my document is printed on two pages and one page is half full of text how do i find out in code that the second page is only half full?

Re: [iText-questions] Licensing questions
Markus: Thanks for your note. To respond: 1) The change in license was posted on this list. In fact, several messages warned of its upcoming change. And the license change has been discussed several times since it was made in December. If you go to the 1t3xt.com website, where iText has been located for several years, the first thing you see is: iText PDF AGPL Java-PDF library If you go to lowagie.com and click on iText Home Page, you see the same thing. For most users, having the AGPL aspect highlighted and bold as the first line of text on the project's home page is pretty clear. Nothing hidden or shady as you call it. It's all been out in the open. 2) There is no indication of the price of the license on the website. All you need to do is send a request to sa...@itextsoftware.com. That's the commercial arm for iText. This too has been posted several times on the mailing list. 3) iText is putting itself in direct competition with e.g. PDFlib (= www.pdflib.com), which can be had transparently for about $1,100 (server license) and has lots of additional features. iText competes with all PDF libraries, open source and commercial. It offers advantages and benefits not found in the other libraries. PDFlib is not free (except for evaluation, personal, and academic use) and not open source. Feel free to choose PDFlib if it better suits your purposes. 4) Lack of response from the developers: You and I exchanged emails on 14 October 2009 about your project. I contacted Bruno on your behalf and personally mailed you his reply. I then gave you a list of possibly interested freelancers. Your last email was to thank me for this help. I am not sure why you think that the developers of an OSS library are obliged to accept your offers to pay them for development of features you want. But you certainly cannot say that you did not receive any response. You did. I have the emails. 5) Of course, the developers accept patches. Patches are submitted all the time as are requests and fixes. These are copiously documented in the change lists of each release. Feel free to post other concerns. ---A. Binstock / for itextsofware.com re Markus Meyer wrote: Am 16.02.2010 20:04, schrieb Brett Neumeier: Yes, absolutely!! My question, in my previous email and in this one, is: what is the text in the AGPL that causes it to operate in the way that you assert that it does? Moreover, there are some more points to consider. First, it seems that the license switch to AGPL (i.e. a viral license) was made very silent. I have used iText a lot over the last years and although I always tried to update to the latest version and often visited the iText website I did not notice the license change until I read this mailing list thread (note that this itself is accidentially, I just happened to be subscribed to the mailing list at the moment because I submitted a patch some weeks ago and never got around to unsubscribe after no one bothered to even answer my patch submission). I just downloaded iText-src-2.1.7.zip to verify it still is LGPL (since that's what we're using at the moment) and, guess what, it does not even contain a LICENSE.TXT or something at all! I also downloaded iText-src-5.0.1.zip and it does not contain any licensing information either. So all of this is very shady. Second, I had tried to contact the iText developers in the past about adding some functionality to iText and requested an offer. My experience was really disappointing. Although I emailed with some persons several times I never really got a quote. Infact, although I specifically requested it, I never got an actual email of Bruno Lowagie (who seems to be the mastermind of iText after all). So I'm not sure whether iText BVBA (or iText Software Corp. or whatever it's called now) will live up to their own new expectations of being a commercial software company. There is also no indication on the website about the price of the commercial license. With this license change, iText is putting itself in direct competition with e.g. PDFlib (= www.pdflib.com), which can be had transparently for about $1,100 (server license) and has lots of additional features. Third, I don't know about the development process of iText, but did the iText developers accept any patches from any third party? If yes, have all third parties agreed to the license change? If not, on what grounds can the license change be performed? All in all, it seems to me that someone is in desperate need of money here but did not think about the consequences.

Re: [iText-questions] Can we use iText to convert frame maker docs to PDF files
You're right: it goes through Distiller. So FM-Postscript-Distiller-PDF. However, if you have Distiller on your system, FM finds it and converts the file to PDF automatically. Distiller is NOT licensed for use on a server. It depends on the version. Adobe Distiller Server 8 is sold by Adobe and is just that--a version of Distiller running on a server that automatically converts .ps files to PDF. See: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrdis/. I just checked with Adobe corporate sales and they still sell it. ---mr. bean Leonard Rosenthol-3 wrote: Actually, FrameMaker can NOT generate PDF files directly.

Per Bruno's earlier post to this list, iText is moving to PDF-only for output. The incubator is for related projects that developers might want to use in conjunction with iText.

It's a classpath error that seems to emanate from your com.xxx.pdf... app in its call to iText.

Re: [iText-questions] Nested Paragraph Indentation
OK so you have arbitrarily long chunks of text that are preceded by a heading and you need to have the heading and the text kept together on the same page. And where several chunks would fit on a page you'd like them to flow together nicely to give the appearance of a single document. This can be done. ColumnText is your friend. Think of a column as text box (of any size)--this will facilitate conceptualizing the solution. You always know the coordinates of the first box (ColumnText), since it appears on the first page. Make it the length of your page (less margins) and fill it with your first heading and data and find out how much space it takes. (Get the y coordinate of the last line.) Place another Column Text below this (as you now have the coordinates) and fill it with the heading and text of the second section and see if it fits on the page (as explained in the book.) If it doesn't, move it to the next page. If it does fit, write it out, get the new y-coordinate, and continue like this section by section until you've output all your material. It might help to know that ColumnText instances can overlap, so placing your second Column Text over the unfilled portion of your original full-page ColumnText is not a problem. Good luck! ---mr. bean digerata-3 wrote: On Oct 12, 2009, at 3:00 PM, mister bean wrote: If you're trying to locate paragraphs exactly and keep the content together, tables or whatever you might mean by nested paragraphs are not the right way to do it.

The tricky part is the last rule. I am currently creating each section title as its own paragraph. Then the first section entry is being added as a child paragraph. The remaining section entries are added as independent paragraphs on their own. This all works well until the indentation comes in, the first section entry is not indented. The problem I see with ColumnText is that it requires coordinates. I'm dealing with arbitrary text and don't have any coordinates. Depending on the arbitrary text before the section, the column could start anywhere on the page. Any ideas? Thanks a ton for chiming in, Mr. Bean! -Mike -- Come build with us!

iText to generate data-based PDFs, such as reports, you provide the data. So, you extract it from Access and pass it to iText. iText does not extract the data for you.

Re: [iText-questions] HeaderFooter question
If you search through this mailing list for HeaderFooter, you'll find many posts similar to this one, posted two weeks ago: http://www.mail-archive.com/itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net/msg45755.html That should point you in the right direction. ---mr. bean Mark Davidson-5 wrote: Ok, so I read through the documentation looking for the answer, I couldn't find it there. Hopefully this won't get a [newbie] tag! Note: I'm using iText-2.1.7.jar Anyways, my problem is that the HeaderFooter class doesn't display footer information like I think it should. Basically, I'm trying to create a footer that has an email address and a phone number on the left side, and the page number on the right side. My initial attempt was as follows: public static HeaderFooter CreateFooter() throws Exception { Smaller = new Font(); Smaller.setSize(8); Phrase fBefore = new Phrase(new Phrase(m...@address.com + + + Page #)); fBefore.setFont(Smaller); Phrase fAfter = new Phrase(\r\nxX- (X-)\r\n); fAfter.setFont(Smaller); return new HeaderFooter(fBefore, fAfter); } This results in HF_Bad.png (attached). It applies the smaller font to the page number, but neither the fBefore or fAfter objects. My solution was to extend the HeaderFooter class, and overwrite the paragraph method as follows: public Paragraph paragraph() { Paragraph p = new Paragraph(); p.add(new Chunk(getBefore().getContent(), getBefore().getFont())); p.add(new Chunk( (m_iPage++/2 + 1) + , getBefore().getFont())); p.add(new Chunk(getAfter().getContent(), getAfter().getFont())); return p; } The m_iPage is a pagenumber workaround I used (since the Page number variable isn't visible). Don't worry, it works! Anyways, when I use this implementation of HeaderFooter (I called it MyHeaderFooter), I get HF_Good.png (attached). Am I making a mistake? It seems that there's something wrong in the library where the assigned fonts don't get applied.

Re: [iText-questions] Table header/footer problem
Strictly speaking, this requirement cannot be met using page events: All parts need to fit tightly together so no spacing between the parts (so the page footer for the last page can be in the middle of the page depending on the size of the report) Page events, which trigger the printing of headers and footers, occur only at the end of the page, not in the middle. This is, of course, why they're called headers/footers, as I suspect you know. If you can let go of that requirement, then: In your shoes, I would make a header/footer table with two rows and move the lines of text in and out (and move them up when there's only one line) depending on where you are in the document. Finally, you should note that if you look at the code for implementing footers and headers, you're running pretty close to the metal, well paper ;-) You can emit the correct text yourself rather than depending on iText to do the work for you. That option will require some study of how iText is implemented. ---mr. bean poncke wrote: Hello, I have a problem generating a document with page headers/footer. The document is one big table. I dont need the default style page headers/footers (I looked at page events already) that are always placed at the top/bottom of a page but table based that are added at the top/bottom of the report table (only on page if table spans multiple pages).

Re: [iText-questions] Re garding JSP to PDF Conversion
Mike: If I read it correctly, Bruno's point is that what you're describing is *not* converting a JSP page to PDF. A JSP is a template with commands to the servlet engine, bits of HTML, etc. Why would anyone turn a JSP file into a PDF? As I read it, the OP's question (if not taken literally) asks whether you could use iText to write a servlet (or servlet engine) that would generate PDFs using a JSP syntax. The answer is sure. But why would you not use a reporting library, of which there are dozens? That way you get a report as your PDF document rather than the equivalent of a screen capture of an HTML page. And you have to write very little of your own code. Hope that helps. ---mr. bean Mike Marchywka-2 wrote: Date: Mon, 8 Jun 2009 15:46:07 +0200 From: To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [iText-questions] Regarding JSP to PDF Conversion shrikant deshmukh wrote: Hi Everyone, [...] The page which we want to convert is retrieve data from database like images and texts.

This is a recurring issue with PDF users but if you are going to defend PDF as a general information publishing format, then why not convert arbitrary rendered material into PDF? Just find some way to capture the rendered JSP pixels and store in PDF as a series of TIFF's? Maybe JSP has some proprietary rendering or he just wants one consistent piece of graphics generating code? Obviously this is a bit cumbersome and simply serves to obscure the source information, but people do it all the time with PDF.

Re: [iText-questions] A complex question and plea for advice
iText Software Corp. has a directory of developers who have worked extensively with iText and on PDFs. You might want to contact one or more of them about this project. See: http://itextsoftware.com/customdev.shtml Best of luck, ---mr. bean re Michael Bell-10 wrote: I've skimmed through Itext In Action, and iText docs, but the task I'm about to outline goes far beyond my expertise. Any comments or suggestions are duly welcome. So: We have an email archive product. It may store millions of emails per user, and have 25,000 users. But a more typical search result is 5000 or so. Anyway, an email of course contains: headers, text body, html body, and attachments. The need is to produce a publishing/exporting piece and for the last few months I was working on one where a .NET rich client pulled stuff into its own database/index store via aN API I wrote that provides the various contents via an HTTP XML API. My reasoning was I wanted the ability to export, in a portable rich client viewer all kinds of email, be able view, search, and print it, and save attachments. In the last week, some folks have thrown up a big fuss, and argued we should Just do PDF - they want a single PDF with a table of contents with links to the individual mails, which display their headers, a list of attachments, and the text/html displayed inline. They also want to embed all the attachments in the PDF and be able to save them by clicking on a save link next to the list. I had vaguely considered something like this but discarded it due to concerns of scalability, server load, memory consumption (both producing the pdf and viewing pdf) and font/character issues (we often don't have any idea what language the text and html are in). I figured this was easier to punt to the rich client, which would look like a typical email client, with folder/message list, attachment pane, etc. I also, to be honest, underestimated some of the capabilities of PDF. All this being said, I'm heavily under the gun (as in discussion tomorrow) as to discuss the feasibility of the approach (which does have the attractive prospects of having everything in one neat package readable by Adobe Reader, relatively easily searched, accesed, and printed). I need experienced developers/users who have generated LARGE PDFs with many pages and embedded attachments to comment on the feasibility/scalability aspects. Among the thoughts I have - font/unicode issues in general - Yes I know iText can handle them IF you have the right font, and IF you know the right font/encoding. That isn't going to be easy here - memory - I wonder about this especially when embedding the attachments - speed - sanity of this approach - issues of converting HTML/Text into iText - 10 GB limit of PDF (I believe this is correct) I saw for example PDF Packages - which I dont know if iTExt supports well. Would this be a good idea. My feeling is their idea is a great one for a FEW documents. But literally exporting as many as they are talking about sounds messy. With packages or links I guess we could segment ... The problem is quite clearly their approach is going to take months of serious testing, performance adjustment and tweaking, and I'd much rather finish the approach I have now. -- OpenSolaris 2009.06 is a cutting edge operating system for enterprises looking to deploy the next generation of Solaris that includes the latest innovations from Sun and the OpenSource community.

Re: [iText-questions] Problem with Chunk underline
The basic problem is that currently the font style attributes are OR'd on. (Bold, italic, underline, etc.) As you know, ORing is a one-way proposition. That is, you can only turn flags on, not off. The way we solve the problem in http://platypus.pz.org Platypus is to create a new font using the existing typeface and size and with style set to Font.NORMAL. This results in the vanilla font with all style attributes switched off. Then turn on the italics and bold and what not as necessary. (Of course, you could turn on the appropriate attributes in the original font creation call.) It's a small kludge, but it works. Cheers! ---mr. bean pickm wrote: Thanks!

Almost all the getters in Paragraph.java begin with the word get... (as expected) except for spacingAfter() and spacingBefore(). Can these getters' names be normalized, so that they start with get? Note that both functions' setters start with set..., which makes the getter names even more peculiar.

Re: [iText-questions] iText question
The broad answer to your question is iText can pull apart a PDF into its elements, but that probably won't solve your probem. PDF files do not necessarily contain text in a sequential order. The text can be written as one glyph (letter) at one point and then the remaining characters as a series of separate strings that are emitted later on. So, there is no guarantee that the word confidential will ever appear as a whole word in the extracted elements. As a result, there is no guarantee that what you're looking to do can be done. Some other tools out there can do limited editing if the PDF happens to have the words written out together, but this depends on the PDF generator and some luck. ---mr. bean guitar-4 wrote: Please help if you can answer this question.

[iText-questions] Re gistering files at point of usage instead of via RegisterDirectories
On systems with many font files, the RegisterDirectories() method can take a while to run. I'd like to be able to provide a property file that contains the font family names and the file locations. Then, when the doc refers to a font, look it up in the property file, get the path to it and register the font file right then and there. To create this property file, I recursively go through a list of font directories. The problem is that iText does not let me access the family name/font name and location for the files it registers. I can get the font names via the iterator (p. 274 in the book) or the font family (different iterator, same page), but I cannot get the font name, family, and file location from iText, as the needed fields in the source code are private. Any suggestions on how to create this property file?

Re: [iText-questions] FOP 0.95 and iText 2.1.3 unable to do exact overprint
Not sure if this is the answer, but I don't understand why you say that the showTextAligned() uses integers. In fact, it uses floating-point values.

I am not able to do exact overprint of +101.- chars (see attached PNG) using just only setting iText, even when I iterate x and y axis value point-by-point. As far as I know, I have to use points as INTEGER in case of iText. Is it reasonable to change position values from INTEGER to let say DECIMAL? Because in FOP I am able to use 99.9pt and it is different position than 100pt (so I have a workaround now). I need it for composing barcode OMR. FOP is able do print the first part of the barcode, while iText is the able to print the rest of barcode (btw.I am solving problem of logical and physical page counting and control digit at the end of barcode). Also both PDF files are attached. Hope, that this my problem and request does not sound too crazy ;-) Or the best answer for me is, that I made something wrong using FOP or iText and I do need to set FOP X-value for 99.9pt.

Re: [iText-questions] Page Number not getting diaplayed in Adobe Reader
I don't think you'll find a lot of list members who will look through the 1500+ lines of code you posted to solve your problem. Have you looked at the discussion of displaying page count in the book? That would be a good place to start. If you have, and that has not solved your problem, you should consider doing what I think most folks would do: copy the known working code from the book into your program and adjust your code to use it. Then test and modify as needed. If that does not solve the problem, then post your code for this operation as you tried it (I recommend a maximum of 30-40 lines) to the list and ask for help. ---mr. bean Dhvanil wrote: I am new to itext and i am facing issue in displaying page number as 1 of 1. 1 of is getting printed but total number of page is not getting printed.

Re: [iText-questions] iText dependency on print driver?
no dependency in most cases. Itext writes the PDF file to a file or a stream. Printing the file is a downstream event unless you direct the PDF stream to the printer (see pages 581-2 in the book). You'll need to see whether that is being done in your situation. But barring that, though, you should be OK. ---mr. bean re Tom Henricksen wrote: We currently use iText 1.3.1 via JasperReports.

It's hard to know what to recommend without knowing what your content is. If your content is text, then increase the margins on the page until there is no overlap. If it's an image, scale the image, using the scaleToFit methods as described in the book. ---Mister Bean hoss * wrote: Dear Sir; i have a problem when using iText to produced pdf , when i insert header and footer on each pdf page the header will be override the content of the page, so i need to know how i can shrunk the pdf content to insert the header before the content.

Re: [iText-questions] setLeading-Problem
Right. People still use the term to mean the delta between the fontsize and the distance between baselines. Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leading), for example, talks about text two lines of text with 0 leading, when they mean: 12pt type with 12pt leading. From what I can tell, though, the usage in PDF and iText as the distance between baselines is now pretty much standard in typesetting. mr. bean Bruno Lowagie (iText) wrote: mister bean wrote: Leading is the distance between two baselines.

Re: [iText-questions] setLeading-Problem
I don't use the iText sharp version, but you have a conceptual issue here. Leading is the distance between two baselines. So if you make the leading of this new paragraph only 0.7 pts below the image, any text larger than 0.7 pts will overwrite the image. Increase the leading so that the baseline of the text is lower. By trial and error you will find how much to lower it to so that you have the gap you want. For future reference, this distance will change anytime you change the typeface/font or the size of the text. ---mr. bean meenakshi thilagam wrote: Hello Everybody, I have an image and a description below it.

Re: [iText-questions] 64-bit iText Version?
There are several standard reasons for using 64-bit Java. Two principal ones: 1) your app needs more than 4GB of heap 2) your Java apps needs to run in 64-bit space. Here is IBM's description of this particular situation: There are Java programs that have to run within the process of a 64-bit application or subsystem. An example of this occurs where a Stored Procedure is implemented using the Java platform within a database such as IBM’s DB2.

The length of the body of my letter is dynamic, but I want the closing of my letter to always stay together on one page.

As the document changes based on user input, the paragraph often splits to two pages, putting Sincerely, at the end of one page and stranding the rest of the text on the following page. I even printed the value of closing.getKeepTogether() in the PDF to double-check, and it does in fact say true.

Re: [iText-questions] Licensing issue with iText 2.0.4
This is a theme that goes back quite a few years. Sun essentially wanted to say that Java should not be used for software on which lives might depend. Other versions that are more detailed relating to other dangerous activities and Java have also been used. Apple has used similar warnings in its licenses. For more on this topic, see http://yakovfain.javadevelopersjournal.com/java_failure_can_lead_to_death.htm Hard to know what course of action could be taken, as you suggest.

Re: [iText-questions] Best Font to support all European languages ?
Arialuni.ttf is a solution if you want a sans serif font. If you're generating long documents or ones with large blocks of texts, you want serif fonts such as those I mentioned below. If not, then arialuni.ttf should work. If you are based in the US, you will discover that arialuni.ttf is hard to find, as it is not installed by default on US systems. In such a case, the following link provides additional info: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/287247#appliesto (but requires Microsoft Office.)
