[iText-questions] Inaccuracy scaling imported pages

Mathias look into the manual of your RIP or printer driver for the exact name of the spot color needed (probably "CONTOUR" or "CutContour" depending on the RIP). Then construct a PdfSpotColor with the given name: http://api.itextpdf.com/com/itextpdf/text/pdf/PdfSpotColor.html Regards, Markus

Fred, JasperReports (with its iReport editor) sounds perfect for that task. Note that JasperReports uses iText internally, but creates the PDFs from scratch. However if you have lots of Word documents and would need to convert them by hand something like a Word VBA macro is probably the easies

I know for a fact that CALLAS pdfToolBox SDK supports splitting a PDF into layers so it may be possible to remove/flatten layers using a combination of operators. What's the price point of Adobe's PDF Library? CALLAS SDK is at about 4.000 EUR. Markus Am 08.02.2010 16:56, schrieb Leonard Rosen
