I'm using the org.apache.pdfbox.pdfviewer.PageDrawer class to draw an image of a PDF and it doesn't look quite the same. Surely the method I came up with to draw lines on the pages of the PDF is not the best but they look fine in the PDF and don't come up on the drawing. I think it's a layering issue, that the PDF has multiple objects positioned on top each other and they're getting hidden in the graphic drawing.

I found org.apache.pdfbox.examples.pdmodel.ImageToPDF which looks like it'll work for JPG and TIF files, but it doesn't seem to support PNG (or any other type for that matter). I traced through the library a little and found some code that was commented out which uses a PDPixelMap, but the constructor which takes a BufferedImage no longer exists. The comments around there say "This method is broken and needs to be implemented" which is a bit discouraging. So my basic question is this: Is there an easy way to convert a PNG to a PDF? If so, do I need to worry about things like scaling, images becoming blurry or too small to see/read, large images getting cut off b/c they don't fit on a page, etc.? ---- Thanks, Adam - FHA 203b; 203k; HECM; VA; USDA; Conventional - Warehouse Lines; FHA-Authorized Originators - Lending and Servicing in over 45 States www.swmc.com - www.simplehecmcalculator.com Visit www.swmc.com/resources for helpful links on Training, Webinars, Lender Alerts and Submitting Conditions This email and any content within or attached hereto from Sun West Mortgage Company, Inc. is confidential and/or legally privileged.
