This toolkit provides some components that are hopefully helpful to create your custom PDFs with Java.
A lot of concepts are borrowed from HTML, like Margins, Paddings and Borders.
The following code shows by example how to use this toolkit.
Document document = new Document();
// add a paragraph
document.render(paragraph("Hello, World!", Align.LEFT, helvetica_bold(12)));
// add a row with several paragraphs
document.render(new Row().with(Margin.of(10,0))
.add(paragraph("Col 1").with(background(NEON_GREEN)))
.add(paragraph("Col 2", Align.CENTER).with(background(GRAY_100)))
.add(paragraph("Col 3", Align.RIGHT).with(background(RED_ORANGE.brighter())))
);
// Add paragraph with background
document.render(paragraph("Hello, Again!", Align.RIGHT)
.with(Margin.left(100))
.with(Padding.of(10, 30))
.with(border(2, UnboxTheme.GREEN))
.with(background(NEON_GREEN)));
// Add a table with fixed column model
TableModel tableModel = new TableModel()
.add("Article", 2f)
.add("Size")
.add("Price", Align.RIGHT);
Table table = new FixedColumnsTable(tableModel)
.with(Margin.of(10))
.with(border(1, GRAY_500));
table.addHeader(TableRow.header(tableModel, helvetica_bold(8)).with(background(GRAY_100)));
table.addRow()
.addCell("SmartTV 200+")
.addCell("55", Align.LEFT, helvetica_bold(8, RED_ORANGE))
.addCell("200.12 EUR");
table.addRow().withCells("SmartPhone", "5,5", "320.00 EUR");
document.render(table);
// render some graphics on a canvas
document.render(new Canvas(100) {
@Override
public void paint(PDPageContentStream contentStream, Bounds viewPort) throws IOException {
drawCircle(contentStream, viewPort.left() + 100, viewPort.top() -50, 50, NEON_GREEN);
}
}.with(Margin.bottom(10)));
document.render(paragraph("Done!", Align.CENTER, helvetica_bold(12))
.with(Padding.of(20))
.with(border(2, RED_ORANGE))
.with(background(GRAY_100)));
PDDocument pdf = document.finish();
pdf.save("./samples/out/SimplePdf.pdf");
pdf.close();The result will look like this:
