Placing Image over an Image In a table in a PDF Using Itextsharp

[Manoop]

I want to create a PDF document using ItextSharp dll.
In that PDF, I want to place an image say A over an image say B in a table.
When I tried the image A is place under the Image B so it is not visible properly
I want to place image A over B.
The code I write is place below.

  Document document = new Document(pageSize);
PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(document, new FileStream
                    ("C:\\man\\headerTable.pdf", FileMode.Create));
document.Open();

PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(3);
table.DefaultCell.Padding = 3;
float[] headerwidths = { 3, 7, 11 }; // percentage
table.SetWidths(headerwidths);
table.WidthPercentage = 100; // percenta
table.DefaultCell.BorderWidth = 2;
table.DefaultCell.HorizontalAlignment =  Element.ALIGN_CENTER;

for (
      int i = 0; i < 37; i++)
      {
        if (i == 15 || i == 30)
         {
          document.Add(table);
          str = System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory.ToString() + "mark.jpg";
          Image png = Image.GetInstance(str);
          png.SetAbsolutePosition(350f, 498f);
          document.Add(png);
          document.NewPage();

          table.DefaultCell.HorizontalAlignment = Element.ALIGN_CENTER;
         }
                         
      phrase2 = new Phrase(paramer[i], FontFactory.GetFont
              (FontFactory.TIMES, 10, Font.BOLD, new Color(0, 0, 0)));
      phrase1 = new Phrase((i + 1).ToString(), FontFactory.GetFont
              (FontFactory.TIMES, 10, Font.BOLD, new Color(0, 0, 0)));
      cell = new PdfPCell();
      cell.AddElement(phrase1);
      table.AddCell(cell);
      cell = new PdfPCell();
      cell.AddElement(phrase2);
      table.AddCell(cell);
      str = System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory.ToString() + "grf.jpg";
      img = Image.GetInstance(str);
      cell = new PdfPCell();

          }
         document.Add(table);
         document.Close();



please help me to solve this

1. Do you realize you are creating a separate instance of the mark.jpg for each page and a separate instance of grf.jpg for each cell? You should create those instances ONCE and reuse them on each page. It will make a smaller JPG file.

2. Apparently you wanted mark.jpg to show over top of the entire page, like a watermark. The recommended way to do that is with a PageEvent; in that page event, instead of adding to the Document, you would add the Image instance directly to the writer.DirectContentOver stream.  But you can also do that without the PageEvent if you'd rather.


                    Image png = Image.GetInstance(str);
                    png.SetAbsolutePosition(350f, 498f);
                    // document.Add(png);
                    writer.DirectContent.AddImage(png);
                    document.NewPage();
                    table = new PdfPTable(3);

Sorry; I said DirectContentOver but the correct property to use is writer.DirectContent, as shown in the code.

You're not making any sense. Your code isn't talking about drawing any lines at all; only placing images, tables and text.  I assumed that you wanted to place one image over top of the table. My equivalent code, which uses writer.DirectContent, is doing that.

You want more help, make more sense. Provide all of the images used in your code. Provide code that outputs the problem PDF and provide the problem PDF itself.  And stop double-posting to the list.

Hello,

i use itextsharp to create pdfs this works perfect.
Does anybody on this group has experience with opening encrypted pdfs?
We create encrypted pdfs within our software and we want our user only to
view the pdfs within our software.
So I look for an pdf viewer which is able to provide an password to
the pdf. We don't like to ask the user every time for an password
so the software should be able to provide the password to the viewer.

Thanks in advance
jochen
