TY... yes it just returns the index. No not using just getTabOrder()... testing by page pdfDic... setting of /Tabs/R works... it sets the key... And you are correct reader does work... my mistake here. Was looking at the form designer fields section. Regards, Farooq On 3/10/2011 6:32 PM, Mar

Pretty sure it doesn't... Nope. Item.getTabOrder() just returns that item's index in the annotation array. Prior to the /Tabs key, tab and annot order were the same thing. (And I STILL wish there were an explicit way to set the tab order to annotation order.) We haven't since updated that code

Hello I’m using iText 5.0.6 and I’m seeing an issue with nested lists inside a table. What I’m seeing is that when a List with a Sub-List is placed in a table the sub list is not being indented or numbered like it would be if added directly to the document. I’m pretty new to iText so I’m not

What do you think that the tab order key does? It only impacts what happens when the user types a tab key. It has NOTHING to do with programmatic or other processing of the fields. Leonard -Original Message- From: Umer Farooq [mailto:u...@octadyne.com] Sent: Thursday, March 10, 2011

2011-03-10 Thread Kevin Day
It's always a good idea to try selecting the text in Acrobat - if you can't select the text, then there's no way that iText is going to be able to extract it. If you *can* select the text (and copy and paste it somewhere and have the text look right), then the issue may be a parsing implementation

That sounds like a PDF viewer bug. What version of Acrobat are you using to tab through the fields? And can we see the PDF? NOTE: /Tabs isn't inheritted, so putting it in a parent Pages object won't work. You're using "getPageN()" would lead me to believe that's not the case, but what the heck.

Without seeing the actual PDF, but based on that differences array - the answer is NO - there is no (easy) way to extract the text. Your only option might be rasterization + OCR. -Original Message- From: Pakhu [mailto:fp...@hotelmanagement.es] Sent: Wednesday, March 09, 2011 9:38 PM To

Hi, we can't actually do your work for you. Just throw the old lib out and the new in. Then look at the number of errors... On first sight 2.1.7 would probably result in less error (seems thus more combatible) but as already mentioned you have to consider other aspects as license, support and main
