1. Create simple PDF files
package console.pdf;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import com.itextpdf.text.Document;
import com.itextpdf.text.DocumentException;
import com.itextpdf.text.PageSize;
import com.itextpdf.text.Paragraph;
import com.itextpdf.text.pdf.PdfWriter;
public class CreatePDF {
public static void main(String[] args) {
CreatePDF p001 = new CreatePDF();
String filename = "P001.pdf";
p001.createPDF(filename);
}
public void createPDF(String filename) {
// step 1
Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4);
// step 2
try {
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream(filename));
document.addTitle("ID.NET");
document.addAuthor("dotuian");
document.addSubject("This is the subject of the PDF file.");
document.addKeywords("This is the keyword of the PDF file.");
// step 3
document.open();
// step 4
document.add(new Paragraph("Hello World!"));
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (DocumentException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
// step 5
document.close();
}
}
}
2. Add Table to PDF file

document.addTitle("ID.NET");

} finally {
// step 5

3. Add a picture to a PDF file and specify a text location
package console.pdf;

}
public void createPDF(String filename) {
// step 1
Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4.rotate(),0,0,0,0);
// step 2
try {

document.addTitle("ID.NET");
document.addAuthor("dotuian");
document.addSubject("This is the subject of the PDF file.");
document.addKeywords("This is the keyword of the PDF file.");
// step 3
document.open();
// step 4
Image image = Image.getInstance("bg.jpg");
document.add(image);
PdfContentByte pdfContentByte = pdfwriter.getDirectContent();
pdfContentByte.beginText();
BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont(BaseFont.TIMES_ROMAN,BaseFont.WINANSI,BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
pdfContentByte.setFontAndSize(bf, 12);
for (int i = 0; i <= 842; i = i + 50) {

}
}

} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (DocumentException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
// step 5
document.close();
}
}
