pdf-generation

My Java application creates PDFs using iText. Sometimes the content is Asian, which does not work. The Asian characters are not visible. I found iTextAsian.jar on the iText download page, but don't know how to use it. The goal is to use my favorite font as default. But when a character is not available an other font is used for this character. I have read, iText can select fonts that way automaticaly, but how to configure this? I also want all required fonts to be included in the PDF, so users don't have to install Asian fonts on their computers. You can define a "FontSelector" and then add

I am trying to create PDF file from xml layout view. I have a listview in that layout, adding items and setting height based on child. PDF is creating but not filling the whole page. What I have tried is, PdfDocument.PageInfo pageInfo = new PdfDocument.PageInfo.Builder(2250, 1400, 1).create(); // start a page PdfDocument.Page page = document.startPage(pageInfo); // draw something on the page LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE); View content = inflater.inflate(R.layout.pdf_layout, null); content.measure(2250, 1400); content.layout(0,0,

I am having trouble with some special slovak characters (for example č, ň and ť). They are disappearing in the itextsharp generated pdf. From what I've been able to find, this problem has to do with encoding of my BaseFont . Currently I am using this: BaseFont.CreateFont(BaseFont.HELVETICA, iTextSharp.text.pdf.BaseFont.CP1250, BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED) Someone suggested that this should work: BaseFont.CreateFont(BaseFont.HELVETICA, iTextSharp.text.pdf.BaseFont.IDENTITY_H, BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED) But it throws this exception error: System.ArgumentException was caught Message='Identity-H' is not a

In Jaspersoft Studio I have created a report where I want to display title in bold. If I use sans serif font then it is working correctly. If I use other fonts, bold is displayed in the preview of Jaspersoft Studio, but is not showing when the report is run in the Jasper server. Please help. You need to create a jasper fonts extension jar and place it into your classpath both compile-time (while compiling the jrxmls) as well as run-time (while running reports). Here is how the jar (e.g. jasperreports-fonts-5.5.2.jar ) should look: The jasperreports_extension.properties should contain few

Is there any way to set DPI (dots per inch) in case of PDFsharp? Thanks No, PDF files are vector files that have no DPI. If your question is about images stored in the PDFfile: PDFsharp stores images as they come. PDFsharp does not (yet) resize images to lower DPI to reduce the file size. Your application knows which image will be used where and at which size, so you should reduce the raster images to the DPI (*) you need before using them with PDFsharp. Please note that images will be included in the PDF only once, even if they are drawn several times - and they can be drawn at different size

I've been using PHPWord for docx files generation. And it's been working great. But now I have the need to also make available some of those files on a pdf version. After a few research I found PyODConverter which use OOo. Seemed quite a good option since I don't want to depend on third party web services. I tried it out on my machine and it works fined, so I've applied it on my server as well. It took a little longer but I've managed to get it working on there too. There is however an (bad) issue. On the server this takes about 21 seconds to get it done, while on my machine it doesn't take
