Landscape mode can be achieved for most applications, thus:
Document doc = new Document( PageSize.LETTER.rotate() );
doc.add( blah );
This sets up the Document object with a Letter size but rotated 90°.
However, if this causes problems of conflicts with your application you

Logically, shouldn't the API throw an Exception if an operation is done

Even without PDFOne, it can be done. I have written a few projects that

real slick.
My technique has evolved in to creating a Document class that extents
the iText Document class. Then, I create a method called generatePDF
When you first create the Document object, you specify the page size.
As far as I know, you cannot change the document page size at any time
after that. All pages of a PDF have to be the same size.

Perhaps you can create the PDF document with two pages? The first one
could include a fully formatted invoice with all the graphic bells and
whistles, then the second page could be just the data portion. It might
be a little clunky, but at least the user would be able to print the
second page o
If you're using PdfWriter to obtain the PDF pages, then things like
that are lost. If you use PdfCopy as an alternateive to PdfWriter, if
will retain most of that, but you will not be able to annotate the
pages. If there is any other way to do this, I have no idea... :)

You want to prompt the user using some other channel. Since you're

Hi all,
I am working on a project that will dynamically built a pdf document
from smaller pdf documents. These other documents also have embedded
html links which work fine on their own. However, when I complete the
integration using iText, the links no longer work. Am I doing something
wrong?
Perhaps you're rendering the page number info too close to the bottom
margin? Or there is another white object just below?

Ack!! That fixed it. Can you throw an exception if the writer is
created after the document is open?! These timing issues are real

Hi Guys,
In my efforts to evaluate iText as a PDF API, I'm finding that going
from a creative design (like from an Art Director) to Java code, and
making it look even remotely close, is an arduous process. Is anyone
else having to deal with issues like this? Or is everyone else just
using iTex
I can kinda see how that could be used for paragraphs of text, but it
loses out on support for images and graphics.
What I really want to accomplish is a simulation of what the tag
does in HTML, as I KNOW this will become a requirement as this project
proceeds.
