  • Help generating pdf file in Creator

    Hi, im trying to generate a pdf file using the jar file:
    itext-1.4.4.jar from the site
    http://www.lowagie.com/iText/
    I've created a library adding this java file, and just to see if works i pasted this code in a button on blank page:
    Document doc = new Document();
    ByteArrayOutputStream baosPDF = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    PdfWriter docWriter = null;
    docWriter = PdfWriter.getInstance(doc, baosPDF);
    doc.add(new Paragraph(
    "This document was created by a class named: "
    + this.getClass().getName()));
    doc.add(new Paragraph(
    "This document was created on "
    + new java.util.Date()));
    doc.close();
    docWriter.close();
    return baosPDF;
    When i use fix imports, creator paste this
    import com.lowagie.text.Paragraph;
    import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter;
    import javax.swing.text.Document;
    import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
    but in the page says it needs com.lowagie.text and com.lowagie.text.pdf if i put this imports manually, creator suggest me every time i put a dot that means i have correctly created the library but when i left the cursor for a while, shows a error ;
    cannot find simbol
    class: text
    location: package Iowagie.text
    but if open the package in proyect window>libraries and open the library the class is there. By the way if i use fix imports creator delete the com.lowagie.text and com.lowagie.text.pdf imports,
    any suggestion or idea? if not, anyone can tell me his own xperience working with pdf and creator?
    TNKS in advance!

    Remove the Return baosPDF.
    Add this code below and it shall work for you.
    Kind Regards,
    Roger

    // setting the content type

    // the contentlength is needed for MSIE!!!

  • Generating PDF file using FOP API in Web Dynpro

    Hi experts,
    I would like to generate PDF files from a WebDynpro application without using Adobe Interactive forms.
    I think that I can export context data to XML stream and then apply XSLT transformation to produce XSLFO format and then pass it to xlfo processor i.e FOP to generate the PDF file.
    Has someone already try this way of generating PDF files?
    Is it a good way of processing ?
    Thanks in advance.
    Thomas.

    hi Thomas,
    You can make use of the iText API to create pdf documents through webdynpro.
    For this you'll have to download  the Itext api jar file.
    Right click your webdynpro project include this jar file using the 'add external jar files'.Now you'll be able to make use of this api in your webdynpro project.
    http://javaboutique.internet.com/tutorials/iText/ .
    The above link will help you in using iText API.
    hope this one helps you.
    Regards,
    Rahul.

  • Performance problems to generate PDF files using CR

    Hi,
    I develop an application that read TXT files and uses this information to generate PDF files, but I'm having problems with performance to generate this PDF, each files are taking at least 1 minute to create the file. I realized that some TMP and RPT files are generated and deleted in the temp folder of the machine which is running the application, but after some time creating the PDF's the RPT files aren't deleted and I have an exception on my app:
    Memory full.

    Hi,
    If you are using IIS5 the give aspnet full permission to the Temp folders. For IIS6 give  IIS_wpg permission.
    For this you need to right click on the folder,
    go to properties,
    security tab,
    click on Add,
    Type aspnet/iis_wpg,
    select top note in Location and click on check on check names.
    Give full control and
    click ok.
    Also try using GC.Collect(), reportDocObject.Close() and reportDocObject.Dispose() as clean up code.

  • Help opening PDF files using Adobe Reader

    I just downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader on my Mac, and now whenever I try and open a PDF file, a message pops up saying "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser, you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, the Quit and relaunch the browser."  How do I launch Adobe Reader and accept this End User License Agreement??

  • Converting  .chm files to pdf files using robohelp

    Can we convert .chm files to pdf files using robohelp plz?
    any help regarding this would be appreciated.
    kohsa

    Welcome to the forum.
    Wrong workflow. The RH project that created the CHM can
    produce other outputs. What you do is create a printed output as
    described in the Printed Documentation article on my site. Don't be
    put off by the length of the article. Producing the output is
    simple but the article explains pretty much everything in detail.
    In theory you can output direct to PDF but most people find
    there are some tweaks they want to make in Word first, better page
    breaks and so on. You can also create the PDF from Word.

    Hi all,

    Regards
    Vids

    hi,
    regarding report, there is a dedicated report forum. you should post there.
    but answer for your question is form is nothing to do with the pdf generation. you can call the report from the as usual.
    In the report you should set the properties like
    destype to 'file'
    desname to 'path with file name'
    desformat to 'pdf'

  • When trying to generate pdf file from firefox 7.0.1 , getting corrupt content error, used to work with previous versions of firefox

    We have done toleration testing on firefox version 5 thru 6 and haven't got an issue with our website generating pdf files for our users. One of our users upgraded to firefox version 7.0.1 and they tried to generate a pdf report, now a screen pops up with Corrupted Content Error The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because an error in the data transmission was detected. I recreated this issue on my pc yesterday by installing firefox 7.0.1. Any hints as to what I need to look at would help. Cannot provide the url because it is a secure website for law enforcement. Thanks.

    You can turn off compatibility checking, but more and more of the Google Toolbar will not work. Google is no longer supporting the Google Toolbar so you should use the alternatives.

  • How to generate PDF file from HTML file using Acrobat API's

    Hi,
    I want to generate a PDF file from an HTML file on server side(C# .Net).
    Their is a COM interop called "AcrobatWeb2PDF" availaible but could not find any document regarding how to use it.
    I cant use "Adobe live cycle PDF Generator" as we just have license for Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.
    Please help...
    Thanks and Regards,
    Anand Mahadik.

    > It is hard to believe that Adobe doesn't provide a toolkit for generating PDF files, so many web based applications have vector based content that needs to be converted to PDF!!!!
    They do, it's just not free (A company in business to make money? I'm sure IBM would never think this way... ;)). As mentioned you have Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator, which you can customize and extend with Java. You also have the Adobe PDF Library SDK, which is written for use with C/C++ although if you license it from Datalogics (the only company in NA Adobe allows to license the PDF Library) you will also get .NET and Java interfaces (part of the DLE - DataLogics Extensions).
    > There must be a way to generate PDF dynamically on a server or from Javascript!
    JavaScript? Not really, no. As far as I'm aware JavaScript has no file system access capabilities without some form of intermediary (like sending the data to a webservice that writes it out to file). How would you create a PDF file with JavaScript?
    The PDF Standard is also in ISOs hands now (ISO 32000-1:2008), it is no longer owned by Adobe - you can download a copy of the specification from them and write your own library based on that as well.

    Hi,
    searched your post for keywords "JDeveloper" "ADF" "JSF" but could not find them. So are you sure you are posting to the right forum?
    If you have an issue with MS WOrd and PDF then Microsoft and Adobe are the ones to call for help. Jasper Reports also is not owned by Oracle, which is another area you want to investigate

    I see no problem with your batch file, and the messages
    proceed properly. To troubleshoot this further, I suggest
    you read the email (currently adjacent) titled:
    "Error using MIF doclet to create PDFs".
    It describes several different approaches, including
    generating PS and using Distiller to generate PDF,
    or trying dzbatcher with -v option to echo each
    command to see where it stops.
    Please let us know your results, as this seems to be
    a common problem.
