Currently i am using following code to generate PDF in a JSP file:
response.setContentType(\"application/force-download\");
Please take a look at the ParseHtmlTable1 example. In this example, we have HTML stored in a StringBuilder
object and some CSS stored in a String
. In my example, I convert the sb
object and the CSS
object to an InputStream
. If you have files with the HTML and the CSS, you could easily use a FileInputStream
.
Once you have an InputStream
for the HTML and the CSS, you can use this code:
// CSS
CSSResolver cssResolver = new StyleAttrCSSResolver();
CssFile cssFile = XMLWorkerHelper.getCSS(new ByteArrayInputStream(CSS.getBytes()));
cssResolver.addCss(cssFile);
// HTML
HtmlPipelineContext htmlContext = new HtmlPipelineContext(null);
htmlContext.setTagFactory(Tags.getHtmlTagProcessorFactory());
// Pipelines
PdfWriterPipeline pdf = new PdfWriterPipeline(document, writer);
HtmlPipeline html = new HtmlPipeline(htmlContext, pdf);
CssResolverPipeline css = new CssResolverPipeline(cssResolver, html);
// XML Worker
XMLWorker worker = new XMLWorker(css, true);
XMLParser p = new XMLParser(worker);
p.parse(new ByteArrayInputStream(sb.toString().getBytes()));
Or, if you don't like all that code:
ByteArrayInputStream bis = new ByteArrayInputStream(htmlSource.toString().getBytes());
ByteArrayInputStream cis = new ByteArrayInputStream(cssSource.toString().getBytes());
XMLWorkerHelper.getInstance().parseXHtml(writer, document, bis, cis);
Change content type to
response.setContentType("application/pdf");
You may try this code reference.
$html .= '<style>'.file_get_contents(_BASE_PATH.'stylesheet.css').'</style>';
i am not sure in java how can you use but in c# you can add external style sheet code or syntax by this code:-
StyleSheet css = new StyleSheet();
css.LoadTagStyle("body", "face", "Garamond");
css.LoadTagStyle("body", "encoding", "Identity-H");
css.LoadTagStyle("body", "size", "12pt");
may be this helps you
