Inkscape can also be used to convert PDF to SVG. It’s actually remarkably good at this, and although the code that it generates is a bit bloated, at the very least, it doesn’t seem to have the particular issue that you are encountering in your program. I think it would be challenging to integrate it … Read more
This is an interesting problem. Taking it by the book, you can start off with this: %PDF-1.0 1 0 obj<</Type/Catalog/Pages 2 0 R>>endobj 2 0 obj<</Type/Pages/Kids[3 0 R]/Count 1>>endobj 3 0 obj<</Type/Page/MediaBox[0 0 3 3]>>endobj xref 0 4 0000000000 65535 f 0000000010 00000 n 0000000053 00000 n 0000000102 00000 n trailer<</Size 4/Root 1 0 R>> … Read more
You didn’t insert a code sample to show how you are currently flattening the XFA form. I assume your code looks like this: var reader = new PdfReader(existingFileStream); var stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, newFileStream); var form = stamper.AcroFields; var fieldKeys = form.Fields.Keys; foreach (string fieldKey in fieldKeys) { form.SetField(fieldKey, “X”); } stamper.FormFlattening = true; stamper.Close(); … Read more
This is the sample code this question is about: public void addLtv(String src, String dest, OcspClient ocsp, CrlClient crl, TSAClient tsa) throws IOException, DocumentException, GeneralSecurityException { PdfReader r = new PdfReader(src); FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(dest); PdfStamper stp = PdfStamper.createSignature(r, fos, ‘\0’, null, true); LtvVerification v = stp.getLtvVerification(); AcroFields fields = stp.getAcroFields(); List<String> names = … Read more
Yes, there is an option (action) that allows pdfs to post themselves. The steps are as follows: List item Open Adobe Acrobat Pro Select the button tool Add submit form button Add the url and how you want the form to be submitted. You’re done. The warning shown when the user clicks the “submit a … Read more
This answer is not for Illustrator, but for ‘some other tool’, namely Ghostscript (download gs871w32.exe or gs871w64.exe). Ghostscript allows you to ‘re-distill’ PDFs (without an intermediate conversion to PostScript, the dreaded ‘refrying’ detour). Try this command: gswin32c.exe ^ -o c:/path/to/output-cmyk.pdf ^ -sDEVICE=pdfwrite ^ -dUseCIEColor ^ -sProcessColorModel=DeviceCMYK ^ -sColorConversionStrategy=CMYK ^ -sColorConversionStrategyForImages=CMYK ^ input-rgb.pdf And if you … Read more
Besides the GUI-based tools mentioned in the other answers, there are a few command line tools which can transform the original PDF source code into a different representation which lets you inspect the (now modified file) with a text editor. All of the tools below work on Linux, Mac OS X, other Unix systems or … Read more
Exporting Figures for Publication is a good starting point. Instead of -deps use -dpdf for pdf output. You can fix the bounding box issue using the code below. set(gcf, ‘PaperSize’, [6.25 7.5]); set(gcf, ‘PaperPositionMode’, ‘manual’); set(gcf, ‘PaperPosition’, [0 0 6.25 7.5]); set(gcf, ‘PaperUnits’, ‘inches’); set(gcf, ‘PaperSize’, [6.25 7.5]); set(gcf, ‘PaperPositionMode’, ‘manual’); set(gcf, ‘PaperPosition’, [0 0 … Read more
The general procedure and a PDFBox issue In theory one should start this by deriving a class from PDFTextStripper and overriding its method: /** * Write a Java string to the output stream. The default implementation will ignore the <code>textPositions</code> * and just calls {@link #writeString(String)}. * * @param text The text to write to … Read more
You shouldn’t “guess” for the possible values. You need to use a value that is stored in the PDF. Try the CheckBoxValues example to find these possible values: public String getCheckboxValue(String src, String name) throws IOException { PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(SRC); AcroFields fields = reader.getAcroFields(); // CP_1 is the name of a check box … Read more
