itextsharp

I am able to create barcode using itextsharp CreateDrawingImage method. But I want to include the actual text into the image. How do I do that? or How do I use CreateImageWithBarcode method to save as image (Jpeg/Png)? Thanks Facing the same problem and after looking in iTextSharp sources it appears you can't. Besides with CreateDrawingImage() I had problems with image resizing, it was fuzzy and unreadable. I ended up using this library (very cool): http://www.codeproject.com/KB/graphics/BarcodeLibrary.aspx Code for EAN13: System.Drawing.Image imageBarcode = BarcodeLib.Barcode.DoEncode

I am attempting to pull some font streams out of a pdf file (legality is not an issue, as my company has paid for the rights to display these documents in their original manner - and this requires a conversion which requires the extraction of the fonts). Now, I had been using MUTool - but it also extracts the images in the pdf as well with no method for bypassing them and some of these contain 10s of thousands of images. So, I took to the web for answers and have come to the following solution: I get all of the fonts into a font dictionary and then I attempt to convert them into PdfStreams

background of the issue: I may get different kind of templates which contains controls(Text Box, check box) some times in a paper/word document.pdf document templates. Now i have to assign values in that provided templates, and have to save it as pdf document.

Now for that template need to assign values, for that found one dll called iTextSharp. based on the samples while i am trying to add , the count of the fields in the pdf template is showing as 0.

I'm using iTextSharp to populate the data to PDF Templates, which is created in OpenOffice. it populating fine, I'm getting proper PDF, But that is coming editable mode. I want non-editable PDF . And also make some rows BOLD( by Program) . below is my snippet code. PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, outputStream); AcroFields fields = stamper.getAcroFields(); //loop fields.setField("Desc_", "HILINSKI, MARK"); Please help me. Thanks. If you don't want to form to be editable, use form flattening as is done in the FillDataSheet example. Add this to your code: fields.setGenerateAppearances

I'm using itextSharp to add anotations in a pdf document. I have a pdf document that already contains an image saved in it, it's a stamp. So I draw some stroke on this pdf in the stamp and everything is fine when I draw them in my WPF but when I send the pdf by email using iTextSharp for the conversion the line I drawed is now below the stamp. How I can solve this problem ? Thank you mkl The explanation you posted as an answer (BTW, more apropos would have been to edit your question to contain that data) explains the issue. There are two principal types of objects visible on a PDF page: the

In my asp.net/c# project I am using the iTextsharp dll to read the text from many pdf documents, but sometimes I get this error System.Web.HttpException: Request timed out. But the code that does it is: public static bool does_pdf_have_keyword(string keyword, string pdf_src) { try { PdfReader pdfReader = new PdfReader(pdf_src); string currentText; int count = pdfReader.NumberOfPages; for (int page = 1; page <= count; page++) { ITextExtractionStrategy strategy = new SimpleTextExtractionStrategy(); currentText = PdfTextExtractor.GetTextFromPage(pdfReader, page, strategy); if (currentText.IndexOf

In a ASP.NET C# website/server I am using the .pdf creater library called ITextSharp to create .pdfs with text & some images about a product. As usual the boss doesn't want to purchase a licence. I know that if I use ITextSharp versions 4.1.6 or lower I can use the library under the free licence(cant I?) My Question: Will the older versions(4.1.6-)/free versions meet my needs of generating a pdf with an image at the top, text content in the middle(some paragraphs) and an image at the bottom? Will I find some API functions not available to myself because I have the older versions? Would you

I've got a PdfPTable in which I am drawing simple text: BaseFont bf = BaseFont.CreateFont(BaseFont.HELVETICA, BaseFont.CP1252, BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED); Font f2 = new Font(bf, 10.0f); PdfPTable tab = new PdfPTable(2); table.AddCell(new PdfPCell(new Phrase("Dude", f2))); And that's all fine and dandy. But then in order to do some fancier stuff , I'm trying to get cell events to work: Font f2 = new Font(bf, 10.0f); // Pretend this is a global class CellEvent : IPdfPCellEvent { void IPdfPCellEvent.CellLayout(PdfPCell cell, Rectangle r, PdfContentByte[] canvases) { ColumnText ct = new ColumnText
