Creating PDF using JEditorPane

[Dorothy_Ng (at) Alexhosp.com.sg]

Hi Bruno,

please ignore my previous mail. I have
found the reason that it's blank, though I have yet to find a way to overcome
it. Basically, it seems that it will only be written into the PDF after
I close the pane. (I have displayed the pane so as to check the content,
making it something like a browser). I will try to figure this part out.

Meanwhile, can you point me to some
part where I can learn how to print the info from JEditorpane into multiple
page in the PDF? Currently whatever cannot fit the page is being cut off,
and I only have 1 page in the PDF.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Dorothy

Hi Bruno,

I tried rebooting my PC and I can open
the pdf now. However it's blank. 

Did I do my codes wrongly? I attached
the code again:

try{
    com.lowagie.text.Document
document1 = new com.lowagie.text.Document(PageSize.A4, 80, 50, 30, 65);
    PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document1,
new FileOutputStream("test.pdf"));
    document1.open();
    PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContent();
    cb.saveState();
    DefaultFontMapper mapper
= new DefaultFontMapper();
    
    PdfGraphics2D g2 = (PdfGraphics2D)cb.createGraphics(612,
792, mapper);
    
    mainPane.paint(g2);
    g2.dispose();
    document1.close();
    writer.close();
    }catch (Exception e){
           
System.err.print( e.getMessage());
    }

Thanks!

Dorothy

What if you shut down the computer, restart and open test.pdf?
It won't be used by any other application, so it should open perfectly.
