if i define a table like this:
Dim datatable As PdfPTable = New PdfPTable(4)
and i dont have 4 cells to add in it, how can i make it so that it automatically fills the cell if there are not enough cells?i am finding that unless i have at least 4 cells in there, it wont display it?how do i figure out which cells are blank?
in my document i am creating 3-4 pdfptables. at design time i dont know the size of the tables. i need to place the 2nd table right after the first, but i dont know the position of the first (i cant calculate it because i dont know how big it is). how do i know where to place the second table?
View 2 Replieshow do i use pdfptable as a real table (A x B) instead of just (A x A)
declaring it this way gives me just one row:
Dim datatable As PdfPTable = New PdfPTable(4)
how can i declare it so that it has multiple rows and multiple columns?
I have an old ASP.NET project originally done in ASP.NET 1.1 w/ iText.NET and converted to .NET 2.0 and iTextSharp 4.1.6.0. It uses lots of Table (I'm assuming pdfptable wasn't an option at the time it was created.) I am trying to convert this code to use the latest iTextSharp 5.0.0 dll and now see Table and cell have been removed. I started converting it anyway and soon found there is no equivalent to a lot of the functionality that Table offered. Mainly AddCell no longer allows a col,row setting. There are literally thousands of these calls in this code and the posibility of changing it to generate linearly row by row looks hopeless at the moment. The current code looks something like:
Dim myTable As New Table(NumReq + 2, IngDS.Tables(0).Rows.Count + 3)
myTable.SetWidths(Width)
myTable.Width = 100
myTable.Padding = 2
[code].....
can show me documentation on this method? i have the following line:
datatable.WriteSelectedRows(0, -1, document.LeftMargin, document.TopMargin, writer.DirectContent) and it doesnt seem to matter whether its topmargin or bottommargin, it puts it at the bottom of the page.
how do i set the font for a pdfptable?
View 3 Replieswhen setting a column to identity it will auto increment 1,2,3,4..however if you delete 4 & 5 and then insert another record it will go in as 6.If you do this a lot you end up with huge gaps in the numbers,is there any way to make SQL default back to filling in the gaps and only count higher if there are no gaps?I know I can do it in the application, or even a UDF, I just want to make sure I am not reinventing the wheel?

View 2 RepliesI have a bunch of PDFs that I'm just trying to open, resize the page, and then save. I'm also hoping that the file sizes will shrink significantly doing so.

View 6 RepliesI have an instance where I have a logo image as part of some artwork..If a user uploads a new logo I have a form field which is larger than the default logo.I then use that form field to position the new image.
The problem is I need to set the background colour of that form field to white so that it covers the old logo in the event that the new image is smaller than the old logo..
what I have done is:foreach (var imageField in imageReplacements)
{
fields.SetFieldProperty(imageField.Key, "bgcolor", iTextSharp.text.Color.WHITE, null);
fields.RegenerateField(imageField.Key);
PdfContentByte overContent = stamper.GetOverContent(imageField.Value.PageNumber);
float[] logoArea = fields.GetFieldPositions(imageField.Key);
[Code]...
The problem with this is that the background colour of the field is set to white and the image then doesn't appear.. i remove the SetFieldProperty and RegenerateField commands and the image replacement works fine.is there a way to set a stacking order on layers?
why my tables are lapping over each other?
Dim datatable As PdfPTable = New PdfPTable(4)

even though im decrementing last_pos by the height of the previous table, they still lap over in a weird way like this:
for this line: c.WidthPercentage = 100F
i am getting this error:Error 1'WidthPercentage' is not a member of 'iTextSharp.text.Table'.

I need to convert fdf files to pdf in asp.net using vb. I found some code that I'm trying to learn from. What I would like to do is upload the fdf file and then output a pdf to a directory and email it out. The fdf files are coming from a shared linux/php host (using the php fdf functions is all I can do here on this host) that are emailed to a central inbox. I'm going to pick up the files from the inbox and upload them to a win/asp.net box to convert to pdf.The code i found is below.
* Dim pdfFlat As New MemoryStream() * Dim pdfReader As New PdfReader(context.Request.MapPath(pdfFormFileName)) * Dim pdfStamper As New PdfStamper(pdfReader, pdfFlat) * ' bind fields from fdf... * Dim fdfReader As New FdfReader(context.Request.InputStream) * Dim pdfForm As AcroFields = pdfStamper.AcroFields *
