Generate PDF files from Java Applications dynamically
Generate PDF files from Java Standalone/Web Applications dynamically
IText is a freely available Java library from Lowagie.com. The iText library is powerful to generating PDFs.
Pre-requisites:
Optional (If we need to align text as traditional format):
1.itext-hyph-xml.jar (To download http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=15255&package_id=151860&release_id=326129)
Configuring iText in Eclipse :
Being a pure Java library, iText comes in the form of a JAR file . Once you have downloaded the library (let's say, at path C:\temp), the following steps will configure the iText library in an Eclipse environment:
OR
Place itext-2.1.4.jar file into your project lib folder (eg:
G:\eclipseworkspace\Apps-Web\WebContent\WEB-INF\lib)
The com.lowagie.text.Document is the main class for PDF document generation. This is the first class to be instantiated. Once the document is created, we would require a writer to write into it. The com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter is a PDF writer. Some of the other commonly used classes are given below:
Basic Steps to do:
/* Simple HelloWorld.java program */
Step 1: Create a Document.
Step 2: Get a DocWriter instance (in this case, a PdfWriter instance)
Step 3: Open the Document.
Step 4: Add content to the Document.
Step 5: Close the Document.
Document document = new Document(); ------àStep 1
try {
PdfWriter.getInstance(document,new FileOutputStream("HelloWorld.pdf")); --------àStep2
document.open(); -----------------àStep3
document.add(new Paragraph("Hello World")); ---------------àStep4
} catch (Exception e) {
// handle exception
}
document.close(); ------------àStep5
let me know if you have any queries on this(IText).
Regards,
Cheekuri.
