  1. Set Initial PDF Document Zoom using iTextSharp

    by on June 28th, 2010 at 10:15 AM
    Another iTextSharp blog post, this time on setting the initial zoom for a document.

    Couldn't find an exact example of how to do this, but managed to cobble this together from a variety of code snippets I found.

    You can set the initial zoom of a document using iTextSharp by adding a SetOpenAction method to the PdfWriter object. I found I could only add this once the document had been opened using doc.Open(), otherwise I got an "Object reference" error. This I presumed ...

    This one had me struggling for a while, so I thought I'd post a blog about it to try and help others.

    What I was trying to do was create a PDF including header and footer sections to print documents onto a headed paper style.

    Using iTextSharp V5.0.2.0 DLL in the bin folder you can create PDFs on the fly. My previous blog explained how to generate a simple PDF. Next I wanted to generate something a bit more complicated.

    If you're like me, you don't like rewriting/copy & pasting validation code for controls that we use all the time. This enticed me to build a collection of these common controls that I can reuse in every application and save myself from a lot of typing. Thus the birth of JmhCommonControl.
