Re: Help neededwithsetCharAdvanceandsuperscript/subscript.

Ian Hobson — 2008-12-04T00:05:50

I don't see how this would help. Adding text in sub or superscript is working just fine. The problem is that I have a character ("]") that needs both a subscript of "D" and a superscript of "20" at the same time. What I expected was to record the horizontal write point before writing the sub script (which is always the shorter of the two), and then move the write point to the saved position before writing the super-script. But its in a table cell so I can't.

Sporadic Problem with getPageNumber

Dominic Maricic — 2008-12-03T22:16:12

Hi Guys, Sorry if this posts twice. I tried posting it using Google Chrome about 14 hours ago and it still hasn't appeared so I'm going to assume it's another bug in their program. I've been using iText for years (using the latest version right now) and have had one problem that's occasionally occured. I finally sat down and tried to figure the problem out and here's my issue: I generate a table of contents which is a combination of a few tables. I call document.getNewPage, then call write.getPageNumber() before I start writing the TOC and I call it right after. Then I subtract the two and add 1 (as the TOC could start and end on the same page) to figure out the total number of TOC pages. The problem is that every once in a while the last table print out very close to the end of the last page (but does not go over and no extra page is printed). When this happens writer.getPageNumber() returns the NEXT page number rather than the current page number the TOC is on. To test this I also tried getting the end

Ah - now I see the problem (or at least I think I do). I suspect that you are using Adobe Reader, and not Adobe Acrobat, as your PDF viewer. And you are expecting to be able to add comments, digitally sign, etc. HOWEVER, Adobe Reader does NOT support such operations on a normal PDF (as you have). In order to gain such rights, you must ADD THEM to the PDF using an Adobe application (such as Acrobat or LiveCycle). It is not possible to add them with iText or other 3rd party solutions.

Leonard Rosenthol — 2008-12-03T17:59:03

Because EPS is a historical technology that has been phased out in favor of various other modern standards. What sort of solution are you building that requires/uses EPS instead of alternatives such as PDF or SVG (or even EMF)?

The Readers shows you 'not allowed' not only for actions that are disallowed by the PDF document. It shows 'not allowed', too, for actions that are not allowed when using the Reader in contrast to using the Acrobat (Reader enablement taken aside).

I'm sorry, I was away from the list for a while. Why not use a generic tag on the Chunk. This example is used to add ellipses and boxes: http://1t3xt.info/examples/browse/?page=example&id=67 but you could easily adapt it to add text in subscript or superscript.

Re: Eliminate white space in PdfPTable

1T3XT info — 2008-12-03T18:16:45

You could create a PDF with a standard width and a height that is the equivalent of several pages so that you have a PDF with one page containing one long table; Read this page into a PdfImportedPage with PdfReader and add the same page over and over to different pages of a new PDF file using different offsets.

External digest size

Eneko González Benito — 2008-12-03T17:52:50

Hi all, I've a problem and i think it's related with the external digest array size. I have had this code working until today: tSignatureAppearance.setExternalDigest(new byte[128], new byte[20], "RSA"); I've just tested this with a new certificate (from a new CA, which i think generates bigger keys (4 Kb?)) and it doesn't work; the acrobat reader says the signature is not valid. I have read in previous posts that the size of the buffer depends on the signature size and the hash. Is there a way i could make the array big enought so i don't have this problem? I have to work with keys of both sizes (2Kb and 4 Kb) and would like to know: a) If is there a way i can calculate the size necessary from the certificate. b) If i can use a size (lets say 1Kb) for the array so it should work with every certificate, independently of it's size (i don't know if you MUST use a 128 bytes lenght array when singing with a 2 Kb key, o if you CAN use a 128 bytes (or bigger, this must be the minimum) length array.

Eliminate white space in PdfPTable

Swapna Guntu — 2008-12-03T14:05:04

Hi, I am using iText for generating PDF documents. I am adding data to a cell in the table and the data comes from database. When a cell contains more data that fits the rest of the page, it gets displayed in the next page and I don't want to have any blank space in between the pages. I am displaying data using pharse. Is there any property that displays the text irrespective of size. Any suggestions/recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Help needed with setCharAdvanceandsuperscript/subscript.

Ian Hobson — 2008-12-03T14:40:23

Hi All, Cracked it - but its a right kludge. After the subscript I change the font, and put a character in another font with suitable setCharAdvance to reposition the write point. I set the colour to white so it can't be seen. Would it be better to switch to RTL and put the sub-script out a second time? What does the team think?
