I have this code and the conversion is working fine. But I can't set the page size to A3.
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
File inputFile = new File("print_1.html");
OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(new File(
"xhtmlToPdf_holaMundo.pdf"));
ITextRenderer renderer = new ITextRenderer();
renderer.layout();
Document document = new Document();
renderer.createPDF(os);
os.close();
}
in css: #page { size: 8.5in 11in; } OR you can use method setPageSize() on the document object.

I have a PDF document with fillable fields; I need to resave it without them. I have tried to do it the following way:
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(Objects.requireNonNull(Main.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("FillableFields.pdf")));
ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PdfWriter writer = new PdfWriter(os);
PdfDocument document = new PdfDocument(reader, writer);
PdfAcroForm acroForm = PdfAcroForm.getAcroForm(document, true);
acroForm.flattenFields();
document.close();
Files.write(Paths.get("WithoutFields.pdf"), os.toByteArray(), StandardOpenOption.CREATE);
}
This approach is not suitable for me because the values from these fields stay in the document, but I need to remove all data (fields and their values).
Then I tried to do it the next way:
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(Objects.requireNonNull(Main.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("FillableFields.pdf")));
ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PdfWriter writer = new PdfWriter(os);
PdfDocument document = new PdfDocument(reader, writer);
PdfAcroForm acroForm = PdfAcroForm.getAcroForm(document, true);
if(acroForm.hasXfaForm())
acroForm.removeXfaForm();
document.close();
System.out.println(os.size());
Files.write(Paths.get("WithoutFields.pdf"), os.toByteArray(), StandardOpenOption.CREATE);
}
It is also not suitable for me because the condition if(acroForm.hasXfaForm()) has returned false.
Can anyone suggest to me how can I save a PDF without fillable fields and their values?
I want to merge many PDF files into one using PDFBox and this is what I've done:
PDDocument document = new PDDocument();
for (String pdfFile: pdfFiles) {
PDDocument part = PDDocument.load(pdfFile);
List<PDPage> list = part.getDocumentCatalog().getAllPages();
for (PDPage page: list) {
document.addPage(page);
}
part.close();
}
document.save("merged.pdf");
document.close();
Where pdfFiles is an ArrayList<String> containing all the PDF files.
When I'm running the above, I'm always getting:
org.apache.pdfbox.exceptions.COSVisitorException: Bad file descriptor
Am I doing something wrong? Is there any other way of doing it?
Why not use the PDFMergerUtility of pdfbox?
PDFMergerUtility ut = new PDFMergerUtility();
ut.addSource(...);
ut.addSource(...);
ut.addSource(...);
ut.setDestinationFileName(...);
ut.mergeDocuments();
A quick Google search returned this bug: "Bad file descriptor while saving a document w. imported PDFs".
It looks like you need to keep the PDFs to be merged open, until after you have saved and closed the combined PDF.

If you want to combine two files where one overlays the other (example: document A is a template and document B has the text you want to put on the template), this works:
after creating "doc", you want to write your template (templateFile) on top of that -
PDDocument watermarkDoc = PDDocument.load(getServletContext()
.getRealPath(templateFile));
Overlay overlay = new Overlay();
overlay.overlay(watermarkDoc, doc);

Some background to this question can be found at Check printing with Java/JSP and Create a "print-only" PDF with itext
I have been able to successfully create and open a PDF with a print dialog using iText-2.0.8 and the following code:
String outputFile = "firstdoc.pdf";
Document document = new Document();
PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream(outputFile));
writer.setOpenAction(new PdfAction(PdfAction.PRINTDIALOG));
document.open();
document.add(new Paragraph("TEST"));
document.close();
I have also been able to use flying-saucer to generate a PDF from XHTML using the following code:
String inputFile = "firstdoc.xhtml";
String url = new File(inputFile).toURI().toURL().toString();
String outputFile = "firstdoc.pdf";
OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(outputFile);
ITextRenderer renderer = new ITextRenderer();
renderer.setDocument(url);
renderer.layout();
renderer.createPDF(os);
os.close();
However, I can't seem to get the two to work together...
I would like to create the PDF using flying-saucer as in the 2nd code block and I would like to set the open action of that PDF to PdfAction.PRINTDIALOG.
How can I get these two sets of code to work together such that a flying-saucer created PDF opens with a print dialog initially?
You can implement org.xhtmlrenderer.pdf.PDFCreationListener of flying saucer and write your print dialog related code in preWrite(ITextRenderer iTextRenderer, int pageCount) method.
#Override
public void preWrite(ITextRenderer iTextRenderer, int pageCount)
{
iTextRenderer.getOutputDevice().getWriter().setOpenAction(new PdfAction(PdfAction.PRINTDIALOG));
}
Add this listener in ITextRenderer
ITextRenderer renderer = new ITextRenderer();
renderer.setListener(PDFCreationListener implemetation class);
renderer.setDocumentFromString(htmlContent);
renderer.layout();
renderer.createPDF(os);
Hope this helps.
Figured it out...
In case someone else needs this in the future, you can just use PdfStamper to modify a PDF that has already been created.
