while extracting font name from pdf i will get some junk characters followed by plus sign and then the font name with font style. i want to remove the junk characters.only for few pdf i get that junk characters. example:MMLPEO+RemingtonNoiseless string curFont = renderInfo.GetFont().PostscriptFontName; The "junk" characters indicate that the font isn't embedded completely. You'll find names such as ABC123+RemingtonNoiseless, XYZ456+RemingtonNoiseless, etc... meaning that there may be different subsets of the same font inside the PDF. For an explanation have a look at section 9.6.4 Font Subsets

I have a table in asp.net page,and trying to export it as a PDF file,I have couple of international characters that are not shown in generated PDF file,any suggestions, Thanks in advance The key for proper display of alternate characters sets (Russian, Chinese, Japanese, etc.) is to use IDENTITY_H encoding when creating the BaseFont. Dim bfR As iTextSharp.text.pdf.BaseFont bfR = iTextSharp.text.pdf.BaseFont.CreateFont("MyFavoriteFont.ttf", iTextSharp.text.pdf.BaseFont.IDENTITY_H, iTextSharp.text.pdf.BaseFont.EMBEDDED) IDENTITY_H provides unicode support for your chosen font, so you should be

I have written an extraction tool using iTextSharp that extracts annotation information from PDF documents. For the highlight annotation, I only get a rectangle for the area on the page which is highlighted. I am aiming for extracting the text that has been highlighted. For that I use `PdfTextExtractor'. Rectangle rect = new Rectangle( pdfArray.GetAsNumber(0).FloatValue, pdfArray.GetAsNumber(1).FloatValue, pdfArray.GetAsNumber(2).FloatValue, pdfArray.GetAsNumber(3).FloatValue); RenderFilter[] filter = { new RegionTextRenderFilter(rect) }; ITextExtractionStrategy strategy = new

I'm creating a PDF document consisting of text only, where all the text is the same point size and font family but each character could potentially be a different color. Everything seems to work fine using the code snippet below, but the default space between the lines is slightly greater than I consider ideal. Is there a way to control this? (FYI, type "ColoredText" in the code below merely contains a string and its color. Also, the reason I am treating the newline character separately is that for some reason it doesn't cause a newline if it's in a Chunk.) Thanks, Ray List<byte[]>

I added a watermark on pdf using Pdfstamper. Here is the code: for (int pageIndex = 1; pageIndex <= pageCount; pageIndex++) { iTextSharp.text.Rectangle pageRectangle = reader.GetPageSizeWithRotation(pageIndex); PdfContentByte pdfData = stamper.GetUnderContent(pageIndex); pdfData.SetFontAndSize(BaseFont.CreateFont(BaseFont.HELVETICA, BaseFont.CP1252, BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED), watermarkFontSize); PdfGState graphicsState = new PdfGState(); graphicsState.FillOpacity = watermarkFontOpacity; pdfData.SetGState(graphicsState); pdfData.SetColorFill(iTextSharp.text.BaseColor.BLACK); pdfData.BeginText();

I have a pdf that was generated from scanning software. The pdf has 1 TIFF image per page. I want to extract the TIFF image from each page. I am using iTextSharp and I have successfully found the images and can get back the raw bytes from the PdfReader.GetStreamBytesRaw method. The problem is, as many before me have discovered, iTextSharp does not contain a PdfReader.CCITTFaxDecode method. What else do I know? Even without iTextSharp I can open the pdf in notepad and find the streams with /Filter /CCITTFaxDecode and I know from the /DecodeParams that it is using CCITTFaxDecode group 4. Does

here's my code. It correctly adds the pictures I want and everything works except that the images are using their native resolution, so if the image is big it's being cropped to fit the page. Is there some way to have the picture use like a Zoom feature to stretch to fit, but also maintain the aspect ratio? There has to be something I'm missing there. :P Here's a picture to illustrate the problem: using System; using System.IO; using iTextSharp.text; using iTextSharp.text.pdf; using System.Drawing; using System.Collections.Generic; namespace WinformsPlayground { public class PDFWrapper {
