PDFBox : PDPageContentStream's append mode misbehaving
(1 answer)
Closed 6 years ago.
I’m using PDFBox 1.8.10 to add text to PDF documents.
It works fine except on some documents where text is added to document (checked with pdf structure inspector) but not displayed in PDF.
Sample document is here: https://kali-docs.ks2.fr/share/s/Ut_LdO8LR4WEeEd1y2k58Q
Because I want to set some custom AlphaConstant to text (and rectangles), I’m using Graphics State Parameter Dictionaries to add text.
Code used:
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(pdfDoc, pdfPage, true, true);
this.textGraphicState = new PDExtendedGraphicsState();
textGraphicState.setNonStrokingAlphaConstant(1f);
Map<String, PDExtendedGraphicsState> graphicsStatesMap = pdfPage.getResources().getGraphicsStates();
if (graphicsStatesMap == null)
{
graphicsStatesMap = new HashMap<String, PDExtendedGraphicsState>();
}
graphicsStatesMap.put("textGraphicState", textGraphicState);
pdfPage.getResources().setGraphicsStates(graphicsStatesMap);
contentStream.appendRawCommands("/textGraphicState gs\n");
contentStream.setNonStrokingColor(fontColor);
contentStream.beginText();
contentStream.setFont( font, fontSize );
contentStream.moveTextPositionByAmount( pagePosX, pagePosY );
contentStream.drawString(text);
contentStream.endText();
contentStream.close();
Any idea ?
Thanks,
Vincent
Resetting graphic state solved my problem (fifth parameter of PDPageContentStream constructor).
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(pdfDoc, pdfPage, true, true, true);

Acrofields created with libre office are not code fillable unless I edit the pdf once

I created a pdf template using libreoffice. I tried to fill chinese string into these field but only garbage in those fields. code like below:
PdfFont kaiuFont = PdfFontFactory.createFont("c:/windows/fonts/kaiu.ttf", true);
FileOutputStream output = new FileOutputStream("d:/download/202106.pdf");
PdfDocument pdf = new PdfDocument(new PdfReader(template), new PdfWriter(output));
PdfAcroForm form = PdfAcroForm.getAcroForm(pdf, true);
Map<String, PdfFormField> fields = form.getFormFields();
fields.get("COMPANY_TITLE").setValue(<Chinese words>).setFontAndSize(kaiuFont, 18f);
pdf.close();
What's wrong with those code?
Please ignore this topic if your pdf is not generated by LibreOffice. I google d for a day and found this solution link and it works for me
libreoffice pdf issue
I am generating pdf report with few inputs like font name, font size. I tried to create a font using below code.
Font font = new Font(FontFamily.TIMES_ROMAN,50.0f,Font.UNDERLINE,BaseColor.RED);
Here, how pass font name that is TIMES_ROMAN as a string?
Here's a quick way on how you can achieve the desired behavior with iText 7:
final PdfDocument pdfDocument = new PdfDocument(new PdfWriter(DEST));
PdfFont font = PdfFontFactory.createFont(FontProgramFactory.createFont(StandardFonts.TIMES_ROMAN));
Style myStyle = new Style()
.setFontSize(50)
.setUnderline()
.setFontColor(RED)
.setFont(font);
try (final Document document = new Document(pdfDocument)) {
document.add(new Paragraph("Hello World!").addStyle(myStyle));
document.add(new Paragraph("Hello World!").setFont(font)
.setFontSize(50)
.setUnderline()
.setFontColor(RED));
}
You can also define the font on a Document level (I'm showing Style and directly on the Paragraph).
I am using pdfbox to add a line to pdf file. but the text i am adding is reversed.
File file = new File(filePath);
PDDocument document = PDDocument.load(file);
PDPage page = document.getPage(0);
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(document, page,PDPageContentStream.AppendMode.APPEND,true);
int stampFontSize = grailsApplication.config.pdfStamp.stampFontSize ? grailsApplication.config.pdfStamp.stampFontSize : 20
contentStream.beginText();
contentStream.setFont(PDType1Font.TIMES_ROMAN, stampFontSize);
int leftOffset = grailsApplication.config.pdfStamp.leftOffset ? grailsApplication.config.pdfStamp.leftOffset : 10
int bottomOffset = grailsApplication.config.pdfStamp.bottomOffset ? grailsApplication.config.pdfStamp.bottomOffset : 20
contentStream.moveTextPositionByAmount(grailsApplication.config.xMove,grailsApplication.config.yMove)
contentStream.newLineAtOffset(leftOffset, bottomOffset)
String text = "i have added this line...!!!!";
contentStream.showText(text);
contentStream.endText();
contentStream.close();
document.save(new File(filePath));
document.close();
byte[] pdfData;
pdfData = Files.readAllBytes(file.toPath());
return pdfData;
i tried using moveTextPositionByAmount method but this does not seem to have any effect on text. why is my text reversed and how can i set it to correct orientation.
Your code is not causing the mirrored output by itself, so the cause must be inside the PDF you are stamping. Unfortunately you did not provide the PDF in question, so we have to guess here.
Most likely the issue is caused by the pre-existing page content having set the current transformation matrix to a mirroring affine transformation without resetting it at the end.
If that indeed is the case, PDFBox provides an easy work-around:
You construct your PDPageContentStream like this:
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(document, page,PDPageContentStream.AppendMode.APPEND,true);
There is another constructor accepting an additional boolean argument. If you use that constructor setting the additional argument to true, PDFBox attempts to reset the graphics state of the content:
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(document, page,PDPageContentStream.AppendMode.APPEND,true,true);
Beware: If this indeed fixes the issue, the coordinates and offsets you currently use rely on the transformation matrix being changed as it is. In that case you will have to update them accordingly.
Alternatively introducing a counter-mirroring may help, e.g. by setting the text matrix like this at the start of each of your text objects:
contentStream.beginText();
contentStream.setTextMatrix(new Matrix(1f, 0f, 0f, -1f, 0f, 0f));
Thereafter all y coordinate changes need to be negated, in particular the second argument of contentStream.moveTextPositionByAmount and contentStream.newLineAtOffset.
(By the way, moveTextPositionByAmount and newLineAtOffset do the same, the former merely is the deprecated variant, so you might want to use the latter in both cases.)
I'm using the iTextSharp library version 5.5.6.0.
This file contains customizable text fields and it's necessary to keep an interactive text form fields: https://yadi.sk/i/yoUvDI9EmtVhc .
But I can't adding an image in PdfTemplate object.
The code in c# at this stage is:
string outpath = #"D:\pdf_\output.pdf";
string inpath = #"D:\pdf_\input.pdf";
string stamp = #"D:\pdf_\img.png";
This method does'nt add the image, but the text boxes are active.
public static void onlyInteractive()
{
using (MemoryStream os = new MemoryStream())
using (PdfReader pdfReader = new PdfReader(inpath))
//APPEND mode
using (PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(pdfReader, os, '\0', true))
{
iTextSharp.text.Image image = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance(stamp);
image.SetAbsolutePosition(0, 0);
PdfTemplate template = PdfTemplate.CreateTemplate(stamper.Writer, image.Width, image.Height);
template.AddImage(image);
stamper.GetOverContent(1).AddTemplate(template, 150, 200, true);
os.WriteTo(new FileStream(outpath, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.ReadWrite));
}
}
The behavior of this method back to the first.
public static void onlyImage()
{
using (Stream output = new FileStream(outpath, FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.None))
using (PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(inpath))
using (var stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, output, '\0', true))
{
iTextSharp.text.Image image = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance(stamp);
image.SetAbsolutePosition(0, 0);
PdfTemplate template = PdfTemplate.CreateTemplate(stamper.Writer, image.Width, image.Height);
template.AddImage(image);
stamper.GetOverContent(1).AddTemplate(template, 150, 200, true);
}
}
onlyInteractive
The issue with this code is that you grab the output PDF before it is finished:
using (PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(pdfReader, os, '\0', true))
{
[...]
os.WriteTo(new FileStream(outpath, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.ReadWrite));
}
When the stamper is getting closed (here implicitly at the end of its using block), some not yet stored PDF objects are written and the internal cross references and the file trailer are written.
You write the os contents to file before that. Thus, your result document is incomplete. Adobe Reader upon opening it repairs it which results in essentially your original document.
onlyImage
This code by itself is correct, it stamps the image onto the document and stores it correctly.
Your problem here is that the document itself is Reader-enabled, i.e. it is signed with a so called usage rights signature. Such signatures tell Adobe Reader upon opening a file to make additional features available displaying editing the document in question.
But when checking the signature on the document with the image, Adobe Reader sees that the document has been changed in a way that is not compatible with the usage rights granted by the signature: An image has been added to the page content which is something not granted by the signature. Thus, Adobe Reader revokes the granted features, in your case form editing.
Removing the usage rights signature
One option in this situation is to remove that signature. In that case form editing is not granted anymore by means of that signature. But in newer Adobe Reader versions (since version XI if I recall correctly) form editing has been granted to all documents by default! In your case that feature is removed due to the invalidated signature!
This can be done as follows:
using (Stream output = new FileStream(outpath, FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.None))
using (PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(inpath))
using (var stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, output))
{
reader.RemoveUsageRights();
iTextSharp.text.Image image = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance(stamp);
image.SetAbsolutePosition(0, 0);
PdfTemplate template = PdfTemplate.CreateTemplate(stamper.Writer, image.Width, image.Height);
template.AddImage(image);
stamper.GetOverContent(1).AddTemplate(template, 150, 200, true);
}
You can now edit the PDF with image in newer Adobe Readers.
Unfortunately, though, there is an error upon saving the document. I don't know whether they have to do with the fact that the source document is partially invalid (Adobe Preflight complains about a number of issues, foremost the use of an undefined encoding name Win1251Encoding) or whether something else gets broken.
Removing the usage rights signature in append mode
Working in append mode we have to manually remove the usage rights signature. Actually, we'll remove the whole Perms dictionary from the Catalog:
using (Stream output = new FileStream(outpath, FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.None))
using (PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(inpath))
using (var stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, output, '\0', true))
{
reader.Catalog.Remove(PdfName.PERMS);
stamper.MarkUsed(reader.Catalog);
iTextSharp.text.Image image = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance(stamp);
image.SetAbsolutePosition(0, 0);
PdfTemplate template = PdfTemplate.CreateTemplate(stamper.Writer, image.Width, image.Height);
template.AddImage(image);
stamper.GetOverContent(1).AddTemplate(template, 150, 200, true);
}
Now you can edit the form and save the file (at least I can in Adobe Reader DC).
PS: The correct coordinates
In a comment the OP shared another PDF and stated that it
for the other file is impossible to place a picture on a page with landscape orientation.
There indeed is an issue in the OP's code:
stamper.GetOverContent(1).AddTemplate(template, 150, 200, true);
The fixed coordinates 150, 200 are a sign that the OP assumes the lower left page corner to be the origin 0, 0 of the coordinate system. While this often is the case, this is not necessarily true. One always has to take the CropBox (which defaults to the MediaBox) into account, i.e. for the OP's code:
Rectangle cropBox = reader.GetCropBox(1);
stamper.GetOverContent(1).AddTemplate(template, cropBox.Left + 150, cropBox.Bottom + 200, true);
the library takes rotation not correctly, but gives 0 degrees.
But that is correct! Your sample PDF is somewhat special as it uses an unrotated rectangle for landscape and a rotated rectangle for portrait.
I am able to insert an Image inside an existing pdf document, but the problem is,
The image is placed at the bottom of the page
The page becomes white with the newly added text showing on it.
I am using following code.
List<PDPage> pages = pdDoc.getDocumentCatalog().getAllPages();
if(pages.size() > 0){
PDJpeg img = new PDJpeg(pdDoc, in);
PDPageContentStream stream = new PDPageContentStream(pdDoc,pages.get(0));
stream.drawImage(img, 60, 60);
stream.close();
}
I want the image on the first page.
PDFBox is a low-level library to work with PDF files. You are responsible for more high-level features. So in this example, you are placing your image at (60, 60) starting from lower-left corner of your document. That is what stream.drawImage(img, 60, 60); does.
If you want to move your image somewhere else, you have to calculate and provide the wanted location (perhaps from dimensions obtained with page.findCropBox(), or manually input your location).
As for the text, PDF document elements are absolutely positioned. There are no low-level capabilities for re-flowing text, floating or something similar. If you write your text on top of your image, it will be written on top of your image.
Finally, for your page becoming white -- you are creating a new content stream and so overwriting the original one for your page. You should be appending to the already available stream.
The relevant line is:
PDPageContentStream stream = new PDPageContentStream( pdDoc, pages.get(0));
What you should do is call it like this:
PDPageContentStream stream = new PDPageContentStream( pdDoc, pages.get(0), true, true);
The first true is whether to append content, and the final true (not critical here) is whether to compress the stream.
Take a look at AddImageToPDF sample available from PDFBox sources.
Try this
doc = PDDocument.load( inputFileName );
PDXObjectImage ximage = null;
ximage = new PDJpeg(doc, new FileInputStream( image )
PDPage page = (PDPage)doc.getDocumentCatalog().getAllPages().get(0);
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(doc, page, true, true);
contentStream.drawImage( ximage, 425, 675 );
contentStream.close();
This prints the image in first page. If u want to print in all pages just put on a for loop with a condition of number of pages as the limit.
This worked for me well!
So late answer but this is for who works on it in 2020 with Kotlin: drawImage() is getting float values inside itself so try this:
val file = File(getPdfFile(FILE_NAME))
val document = PDDocument.load(file)
val page = document.getPage(0)
val contentStream: PDPageContentStream
contentStream = PDPageContentStream(document, page, true, true)
// Define a content stream for adding to the PDF
val bitmap: Bitmap? = ImageSaver(this).setFileName("sign.png").setDirectoryName("signature").load()
val mediaBox: PDRectangle = page.mediaBox
val ximage: PDImageXObject = JPEGFactory.createFromImage(document, bitmap)
contentStream.drawImage(ximage, mediaBox.width - 4 * 65, 26f)
// Make sure that the content stream is closed:
contentStream.close()
// Save the final pdf document to a file
pdfSaveLocation = "$directoryPDF/$UPDATED_FILE_NAME"
val pathSave = pdfSaveLocation
document.save(pathSave)
document.close()
I am creating a new PDF and running below code in a loop - to add one image per page and below co-ordinates and height and width values work well for me.
where out is BufferedImage reference variable
PDPage page = new PDPage();
outputdocument.addPage(page);
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(outputdocument, page, AppendMode.APPEND, true);
PDImageXObject pdImageXObject = JPEGFactory.createFromImage(outputdocument, out);
contentStream.drawImage(pdImageXObject, 5, 2, 600, 750);
contentStream.close();
