When I am generating the PDF , I am not getting the Text in the proper format.

Java : Aspose 2.7.0

Whenever there is "&" or "<" in the segment under a text marking as IsHtmlTagSupported=true, its failing to generate the pdf.

I tried with & and <, still its not wotking. Do u have any solution/workaround for this ?

Hello Sriman,

In recent release version, there is an issue while rendering Text paragraph inside PDF document when we call setIsHtmlTagSupported(...) method for the text object. For the sake of correction, we already have logged this problem as PDFJAVA-27983 in our issue tracking system. We will further look into the details of this problem and will keep you updated on the status of correction. We apologize for your inconvenience.

If I am missing something, please share some more details regarding the approach you are following to generate the PDF.

sulthu · June 2, 2011, 1:59pm

If I write a string inside a Text tag with IsHtmlSupported=true then all the fonts are coming in small letters. However if the letters are Bold, Itallic then its coming correctly.

Any suggestion.

Hello Sriman,

Thanks for your patience and sorry for replying you late.

Are you facing this problem while converting XML file into PDF format ? because during my testing with normal text object containing HTML tags inside section element, I am unable to notice any problem. Please share some details. We apologize for your inconvenience.

PS, If possible, please share the code/XML contents so that we can test the scenario at our end.

sulthu · June 6, 2011, 5:32am

Yes, I am getting this issue when converting a XML into a PDF.

Here is the sample XML :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<Table ColumnWidths="100%" DefaultCellPaddingTop="3" DefaultCellPaddingLeft="4" DefaultCellPaddingRight="4"
DefaultCellPaddingBottom="3">

Still the issue persists and has not been fixed completely.

This should give me a pdf with "My <Test pdf". But its throwing exception. All the html tags should be taken care.

sulthu · September 20, 2011, 4:59am

While we copied some data from MS word it comes along with the html tags (as below). In this case aslso the PDF generation failed.

Hi,

When can I expect a fix for these issues ?

Got another issue. Here I have generated PDFs from the below XML by using Aspose 2.7.0 and 3.0.1 separately. Please look into the generated PDF. PDF using 3.0.1 Jar is having unnecessary spaces in between lines and paragraphs.

XML :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

My test - test type

Hi,

Could you please provide an update?

Thanks

sulthu · November 9, 2011, 11:01am

Hi,

Its a gentle reminder.

When can we expect a solution for these issues ?

sulthu · November 17, 2011, 6:07am

Hi,

Knock....Knock..... Is anybody there ?

Why are you people not replying ? Is everything OK ?

nausherwan.aslam · November 21, 2011, 2:11am

Hi sriman,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Sorry for the delay in response.

We have received a feedback from our development team and as per the development team; this is not a bug in Aspose.PDF for Java. The XML file is not configured correctly. The entity is not one of XML's predefined entities.

There are two solutions:

1) use for a non-breaking space;

2) you have to provide a DTD that declares what it means:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE some_name [

]>

Sorry for the delay and inconvenience,

sulthu · December 1, 2011, 4:29am

I tried xml given in the reply : 339622 with the above solutions but could not succeed. The big gap between the lines are still coming and is not the same format as 2.7.0.

I need the same format as we get from Aspose 2.7.0 jar.

If you have the pdfs then please share. Please use the latest Aspose pdf Jar 3.0.1
