height of the pdf using itextsharp - itext

how to get the page size of the pdf using iTextsharp? i am using Pdf reader to number of pages for getting PDF . please Provide code for calculating the Size of the pdf
thank you in advance

Have a look at the webified iTextSharp example PageInformation.cs corresponding to PageInformation.java from chapter 6 of iText in Action — 2nd Edition which outputs multiple bits of information about a document using iTextSharp. The central method is this:
public static void Inspect(StringBuilder sb, byte[] pdf, string fileName) {
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(pdf);
sb.Append(fileName);
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
sb.Append("Number of pages: ");
sb.Append(reader.NumberOfPages);
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
Rectangle mediabox = reader.GetPageSize(1);
sb.Append("Size of page 1: [");
sb.Append(mediabox.Left);
sb.Append(',');
sb.Append(mediabox.Bottom);
sb.Append(',');
sb.Append(mediabox.Right);
sb.Append(',');
sb.Append(mediabox.Top);
sb.Append("]");
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
sb.Append("Rotation of page 1: ");
sb.Append(reader.GetPageRotation(1));
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
sb.Append("Page size with rotation of page 1: ");
sb.Append(reader.GetPageSizeWithRotation(1));
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
sb.Append("Is rebuilt? ");
sb.Append(reader.IsRebuilt().ToString());
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
sb.Append("Is encrypted? ");
sb.Append(reader.IsEncrypted().ToString());
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
}

Image scrambled when embedded into pdf using iTextSharp

I'm having an issue when attempting to create a PDF with an image using iTextSharp. I'm adding the image to the top of the PDF like a masthead and then the rest of the PDF is HTML. The PDF generates fine and displays correctly when viewed in Edge, Chrome and Firefox. But, if you open it in IE or in Adobe Reader, the masthead is completely scrambled. The rest of the PDF (the HTML content) generates as expected in all browsers and programs. I've googled for days now trying to discover if anyone else has had this issue, but all I can find is text being garbled, not images. Below is the code I'm using to generate the image. Any ideas?
using (var document = new Document(PageSize.A4, 10f, 10f, 10f, 10f))
{
iTextSharp.text.Image image = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance(Server.MapPath("~/Content/Images/kfa_masthead.jpg"));
using (var ms = new MemoryStream())
{
image.Left = 10f;
image.Top = image.Height;
image.ScaleAbsolute(560f, 58f);
using (var writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(document, ms))
{
document.Open();
writer.CloseStream = false;
//Add the masthead
document.Add(image);
//Add the report information
var html = CreateTable(profile);
using (var xHtml = new StringReader(html))
{
XMLWorkerHelper.GetInstance().ParseXHtml(writer, document, xHtml);
}
document.CloseDocument();
document.Close();
}
return ms.ToArray();
}
}

iTextSharp automatically shrinking images when end of the page reach

I'm using iTextSharp to display images in a pdf report. Here I want display two images in a row and it's working as expected but having a issue when end of the page reaches. The issue is that last row images get shrink to fit in same page, it doesn't automatically add it to the next page. All images having same dimension and resolution.
Please, provide us with the code.
I wrote the test below (although it's in java, there should be no problem) and the results seem to be correct.
public void tableWithImagesTest01() throws IOException, InterruptedException {
String testName = "tableWithImagesTest01.pdf";
String outFileName = destinationFolder + testName;
String cmpFileName = sourceFolder + "cmp_" + testName;
PdfDocument pdfDoc = new PdfDocument(new PdfWriter(outFileName));
Document doc = new Document(pdfDoc, PageSize.A3);
Image image1 = new Image(ImageDataFactory.create(sourceFolder + "itis.jpg"));
Table table = new Table(2);
for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
table.addCell(new Cell().add(image1));
table.addCell(new Cell().add(image1));
table.addCell(new Cell().add(new Paragraph("Hello")));
table.addCell(new Cell().add(new Paragraph("World")));
}
doc.add(table);
doc.close();
Assert.assertNull(new CompareTool().compareByContent(outFileName, cmpFileName, destinationFolder, "diff"));
}
The result pdf looks like this:
Maybe you use summat image1.setAutoScale(true);? Still we need your code to look at.
The easiest solution (considering all images have the same dimension and resolution) would be to manually insert a new page and pagebreak every time you have inserted the maximum number of images to a page.
Taken from a comment below, the solution that works is, on the individual images you need to set:
image.ScaleToFitHeight = false;
Likely to happen when keeping rows together

Change page numbers in EvoPDF

Within a pdf it is possible to change page numbering, so the first page would be page 5, etc.
(This has nothing to do with headers and footers, i'm speaking strictly about the page numbers as they appear in the pdf toolbar)
Is it possible to control those numbers with EvoPDF?
Yes, apparently with EVOPDF v5 you can set the number to be displayed on the page using the PageNumberingStartIndex property of the PdfHeaderOptions object (same for Footers). I don't know of any examples using this.
It is not possible to change the page numbering displayed by Adobe Reader using an option in the generated PDF document. What you can do is to make the PDF viewer go to a certain page in PDF document when the document is opened. You can check the Go To a Location in a PDF Page When the Document is Opened Demo . The C# code to implement this feature is:
protected void convertToPdfButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Create a HTML to PDF converter object with default settings
HtmlToPdfConverter htmlToPdfConverter = new HtmlToPdfConverter();
// Set license key received after purchase to use the converter in licensed mode
// Leave it not set to use the converter in demo mode
htmlToPdfConverter.LicenseKey = "4W9+bn19bn5ue2B+bn1/YH98YHd3d3c=";
Document pdfDocument = null;
try
{
// Convert a HTML page to a PDF document object
pdfDocument = htmlToPdfConverter.ConvertUrlToPdfDocumentObject(urlTextBox.Text);
int goToPageNumber = int.Parse(pageNumberTextBox.Text);
if (goToPageNumber > pdfDocument.Pages.Count)
{
return;
}
// Get destination PDF page
PdfPage goToPage = pdfDocument.Pages[goToPageNumber - 1];
// Get the destination point in PDF page
float goToX = float.Parse(xLocationTextBox.Text);
float goToY = float.Parse(yLocationTextBox.Text);
PointF goToLocation = new PointF(goToX, goToY);
// Get the destination view mode
DestinationViewMode viewMode = SelectedViewMode();
// Create the destination in PDF document
ExplicitDestination goToDestination = new ExplicitDestination(goToPage, goToLocation, viewMode);
// Set the zoom level when the destination is displayed
if (viewMode == DestinationViewMode.XYZ)
goToDestination.ZoomPercentage = int.Parse(zoomLevelTextBox.Text);
// Set the document Go To open action
pdfDocument.OpenAction.Action = new PdfActionGoTo(goToDestination);
// Save the PDF document in a memory buffer
byte[] outPdfBuffer = pdfDocument.Save();
// Send the PDF as response to browser
// Set response content type
Response.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/pdf");
// Instruct the browser to open the PDF file as an attachment or inline
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", String.Format("attachment; filename=Go_To_Page_Open_Action.pdf; size={0}", outPdfBuffer.Length.ToString()));
// Write the PDF document buffer to HTTP response
Response.BinaryWrite(outPdfBuffer);
// End the HTTP response and stop the current page processing
Response.End();
}
finally
{
// Close the PDF document
if (pdfDocument != null)
pdfDocument.Close();
}
}

adding page numbers and creating landscape A4 in streams with itext

I have the following code that generates a pdf into the stream. This works well but i now have the following requirements.
1) make page landscape: Looking at other examples they add the property to the document object. But i'm doing this instream. So how would i add this property?
2) Add page numbers. I need to put items into a grid so that there are x number of rows per page. With a page number at the footer of the page. How can this kind of feature be acheived with Itext sharp.
public static void Create(ICollection<Part> parts, string path)
{
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(path);
var pageWidth = 500;
byte[] bytes;
using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
{
using (PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, ms))
{
PdfContentByte cb = stamper.GetOverContent(1);
//Flush the PdfStamper's buffer
stamper.Close();
//Get the raw bytes of the PDF
bytes = ms.ToArray();
var now = String.Format("{0:d-M-yyyy}", DateTime.Now);
var pdfName = string.Format("{0}_factory_worksheet", now).Replace("%", "").Replace(" ", "_");
var context = HttpContext.Current;
context.Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
context.Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=" + pdfName);
context.Response.Buffer = true;
context.Response.Clear();
context.Response.OutputStream.Write(ms.GetBuffer(), 0, ms.GetBuffer().Length);
context.Response.OutputStream.Flush();
context.Response.End();
}
}
}
I don't really know how you handling it C# but logical flow will be like this:
Use PdfDictionary to rotate content in reader to 90 degree.Assuming your pdf contain multiple pages,
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(path);
for (int pgCnt=1; pgCnt <= reader.getNumberOfPages(); pgCnt++) {
//Logic to implement rotation & Add Page number
}
To get current rotation(assuming you are using Portrait mode & try to convert it in landscape mode) use int rttnPg = reader.getPageRotation(pgCnt); also get the PdfDictionary of that page pgDctnry=reader.getPageN(i);(I named that variable as pgDctnry)
Now to rotate it in 90 degree use
pgDctnry.put(PdfName.ROTATE, new PdfNumber(rttnPg+90));
Now bind it using PdfStamper as you are currently doing it.Now to add page number get over content(here i named it pgCntntBt) of the current page
pgCntntBt = stamper .getOverContent(pgCnt);
rctPgSz = rdrPgr.getPageSizeWithRotation(pgCnt);
pgCntntBt.beginText();
bfUsed=//Base Font used for text to be displayed.Also set font size pgCntntBt.setFontAndSize(bfUsed,8.2f);
txtPg=String.format(pgTxt+" %d/%d",pgCnt,totPgCnt);
pgCntntBt.showTextAligned(2,txtPg,//Put Width,//Put Height,//Rotation);
pgCntntBt.endText();
Actually i don't understand what you mean by this:"I need to put items into a grid so that there are x number of rows per page. With a page number at the footer of the page".Now close the stamper to flush it in outputstream.

iText AddImage() to specific page

I'm having a problem trying to locate a PdfContentByte directly into an specific page. My problem is: I need to add an Image for each page (That works) and need to add a QRCode to each of the pages at the right bottom corner but this works only for the first Page and I don't know how to repeat it on the other ones.
This is my code:
public string GeneratePDFDocument(Atomic.Development.Montenegro.Data.Entities.Document document, Stamp stamp)
{
string filename = #"C:\Users\Sheldon\Desktop\Pdf.Pdf";
FileStream fs = new FileStream(filename, FileMode.Create);
iTextSharp.text.Document pdfDocument = new iTextSharp.text.Document(PageSize.LETTER, PAGE_LEFT_MARGIN, PAGE_RIGHT_MARGIN, PAGE_TOP_MARGIN, PAGE_BOTTOM_MARGIN);
iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfWriter writer = iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfWriter.GetInstance(pdfDocument, fs);
pdfDocument.Open();
int count = document.Pages.Count;
foreach (Page page in document.Pages)
{
Image img = Image.GetInstance(page.Image);
img.ScaleToFit(PageSize.LETTER.Width-(PAGE_LEFT_MARGIN + PAGE_RIGHT_MARGIN), PageSize.LETTER.Height-(PAGE_TOP_MARGIN + PAGE_BOTTOM_MARGIN));
pdfDocument.Add(img);
PlaceCodeBar(writer);
}
pdfDocument.Close();
writer.Close();
fs.Close();
return filename;
}
private static void PlaceCodeBar(iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfWriter writer)
{
String codeText = "TEXT TO ENCODE";
iTextSharp.text.pdf.BarcodePDF417 pdf417 = new iTextSharp.text.pdf.BarcodePDF417();
pdf417.SetText(codeText);
Image img = pdf417.GetImage();
iTextSharp.text.pdf.BarcodeQRCode qrcode = new iTextSharp.text.pdf.BarcodeQRCode(codeText, 1, 1, null);
img = qrcode.GetImage();
iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfContentByte cb = writer.DirectContent;
cb.SaveState();
cb.BeginText();
img.SetAbsolutePosition(PageSize.LETTER.Width-PAGE_RIGHT_MARGIN-img.ScaledWidth, PAGE_BOTTOM_MARGIN);
cb.AddImage(img);
cb.EndText();
cb.RestoreState();
}
So add it in your foreach (Page...) loop:
foreach (Page page in document.Pages)
{
Image img = Image.GetInstance(page.Image);
img.ScaleToFit(PageSize.LETTER.Width-(PAGE_LEFT_MARGIN + PAGE_RIGHT_MARGIN), PageSize.LETTER.Height-(PAGE_TOP_MARGIN + PAGE_BOTTOM_MARGIN));
pdfDocument.Add(img);
PlaceCodeBar(writer);
}
If this is a second pass on the same PDF (you've closed it then opened it again), use a PdfStamper rather than a PdfWriter. You can then get the direct content of each page rather than the one direct content that is reused (and reset) for each page.
PS: Drop the BeginText() and EndText() calls. Those operators should only be used when actually drawing text/setting fonts/etc. No line art. No images. The SaveState()/RestoreState() are good though. Definitely keep those.
I just figure out how to solve the problem. Just delete the cb.SaveState() and cb.RestoreState() and it put the image on the page is actually active.
