pdfbox

I want to print this in a pdf created by PDFBOX. It wont let me insert tabs and spaces because the font does not support them. Why is this a problem, and more importantly, how can I fix it? StudentData student = listOfDebtors.get(j); contentStream.beginText(); contentStream.setFont(font, 8); contentStream.newLineAtOffset(xPosition, yPosition); contentStream.showText("Member #:"+ student.getMembershipNumber() + "\t" + "Grade:" + getStudentGradeInSchool(student.getYearGraduate()) + "\t" + "Year Joined" + student.getYearJoined() + "\n" + "Name:" + student.getFirstName() + " " + student

My only requirement is to find a selected pdf in a folder is Reader enabled or not, more specifically if usage rights are defined in a way that allows people to add annotations (e.g. comments). I am doing this in windows application. If I click a button, an event is triggered searching a folder for PDF files. This event needs to check whether or not the PDFs in the folder are Reader enabled for comments. If they are, I need to remove the comment usage rights or revert the PDF back to its original version. My code can only find PDF files in the folder. I don`t know how to check if the selected

I need to read a plan exported by AutoCAD to PDF and place some markers with text on it with PDFBox. Everything works fine, except the calculation of the width of the text, which is written next to the markers. I skimmed through the whole PDF specification and read in detail the parts, which deal with the graphic and the text, but to no avail. As far as I understand, the glyph coordinate space is set up in a 1/1000 of the user coordinate space. Hence the width need to be scale up by 1000, but it's still a fraction of the real width. This is what I am doing to position the text: float textWidth

I am processing some large pdf files, (up to 100MB and about 2000 pages), with pdfbox. Some of the pages contain a QR code, I want to split those files into smaller ones with the pages from one QR code to the next. I got this, but the result file sizes are the same as the source file. I mean, if I cut a 100MB pdf file into a ten files I am getting ten files 100MB each. This is the code: PDDocument documentoPdf = PDDocument.loadNonSeq(new File("myFile.pdf"), new RandomAccessFile(new File("./tmp/temp"), "rw")); int numPages = documentoPdf.getNumberOfPages(); List pages = documentoPdf
