pdfbox

When I try to draw png images using pdfBox, the pages remain blank. Is there any way to insert png images using pdfBox? public void createPDFFromImage( String inputFile, String image, String outputFile ) throws IOException, COSVisitorException { // the document PDDocument doc = null; try { doc = PDDocument.load( inputFile ); //we will add the image to the first page. PDPage page = (PDPage)doc.getDocumentCatalog().getAllPages().get( 0 ); PDXObjectImage ximage = null; if( image.toLowerCase().endsWith( ".jpg" ) ) { ximage = new PDJpeg(doc, new FileInputStream( image ) ); } else if (image

I am attempting to create a PDF report from a Java ResultSet. If the report was only one page, I would have no problem here. The issue comes from the fact that the report could be anywhere from one to ten pages long. Right now, I have this to create a single-page document: PDDocument document = new PDDocument(); PDPage page = new PDPage(PDPage.PAGE_SIZE_LETTER); document.addPage(page); PDPageContentStream content = new PDPageContentStream(document,page); So my question is, how do I create pages dynamically as they are needed. Is there an object-oriented answer staring me in the face and I just

I am using PDFBox with the following code: doc = new PDDocument(); page = new PDPage(); doc.addPage(page); PDFont font = PDType1Font.COURIER; pdftitle = new PDPageContentStream(doc, page); pdftitle.beginText(); pdftitle.setFont( font, 12 ); pdftitle.moveTextPositionByAmount( 40, 740 ); pdftitle.drawString("Here I insert a lot of text"); pdftitle.endText(); pdftitle.close(); Does anyone know how I can wrap the text so that it automatically goes to another line? Lukas I don't think it is possible to wrap text automatically. But you can wrap your text yourself. See How to Insert a Linefeed with

I'm trying to use PDFBox 2.0 for text extraction. I would like to get information on the font size of specific characters and the position rectangle of that character on the page. I've implemented this in PDFBox 1.6 using a PDFTextStripper: PDFParser parser = new PDFParser(is); try{ parser.parse(); }catch(IOException e){ } COSDocument cosDoc = parser.getDocument(); PDDocument pdd = new PDDocument(cosDoc); final StringBuffer extractedText = new StringBuffer(); PDFTextStripper textStripper = new PDFTextStripper(){ @Override protected void processTextPosition(TextPosition text) { extractedText

I'm using pdfbox for the first time. Now I'm reading something on the website Pdf Summarizing I have a pdf like this: only that my file has many and many different component(textField,RadionButton,CheckBox). For this pdf I have to read these values : Mauro,Rossi,MyCompany. For now I wrote the following code: PDDocument pdDoc = PDDocument.loadNonSeq( myFile, null ); PDDocumentCatalog pdCatalog = pdDoc.getDocumentCatalog(); PDAcroForm pdAcroForm = pdCatalog.getAcroForm(); for(PDField pdField : pdAcroForm.getFields()){ System.out.println(pdField.getValue()) } Is this a correct way to read the

I am a newbie in using Digital Signatures. In one of the projects we are using Apache PdfBox for processing digitally signed pdf files. While we could test all features, verification of signed pdf files is something we are unable to crack. We are using BouncyCastle as the provider. Below is the code: //Get Digital Signature and Signed Content from pdf file byte[] signatureAsBytes = pdsignature.getContents(new FileInputStream(this.INPUT_FILE)); byte[] signedContentAsBytes = pdsignature.getSignedContent(new FileInputStream(this.INPUT_FILE)); //Digital Signature Verification Security.addProvider

I can insert simple text like this: document = new PDDocument(); page = new PDPage(PDPage.PAGE_SIZE_A4); document.addPage(page); PDPageContentStream content = new PDPageContentStream(document, page); content.beginText(); content.moveTextPositionByAmount (10 , 10); content.drawString ("test text"); content.endText(); content.close(); but how can I create a paragraph similar to HTML using the width attribute? <p style="width:200px;">test text</p> Warning : this answer applies to and old version of PDFBox and relies on features that has since been deprecated.

I'm trying to convert a pdf (my favorite book Effective Java, if its matter)to text, i checked both iText and Apache PdfBox. I see a really big difference in performance: With iText it took 2:521, and with PdfBox: 6:117. This if my code for PdfBOx PDFTextStripper stripper = new PDFTextStripper(); BUFFER.append(stripper.getText(PDDocument.load(pdf))); And this is for iText PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(pdf); for (int i = 1; i <= reader.getNumberOfPages(); i++) { BUFFER.append(PdfTextExtractor.getTextFromPage(reader, i)); } My question is in what the performance depends, is there a way how to
