1.itext介绍

iText是著名的开放源码的站点sourceforge一个项目，是用于生成PDF文档的一个java类库。通过iText不仅可以生成PDF或rtf的文档，而且可以将XML、Html文件转化为PDF文件

iText 的特点

以下是 iText 库的显着特点 ?

• Interactive ? iText 为你提供类（API）来生成交互式 PDF 文档。使用这些，你可以创建地图和书籍。
• Adding bookmarks, page numbers, etc ? 使用 iText，你可以添加书签、页码和水印。
• Split & Merge ? 使用 iText，你可以将现有的 PDF 拆分为多个 PDF，还可以向其中添加/连接其他页面。
• Fill Forms ? 使用 iText，你可以在 PDF 文档中填写交互式表单。
• Save as Image ? 使用 iText，你可以将 PDF 保存为图像文件，例如 PNG 或 JPEG。
• Canvas ? iText 库为您提供了一个 Canvas 类，你可以使用它在 PDF 文档上绘制各种几何形状，如圆形、线条等。
• Create PDFs ? 使用 iText，你可以从 Java 程序创建新的 PDF 文件。你也可以包含图像和字体。

2.代码工程

实验目标：将thymeleaf 的views生成成PDF

controller

converterProperties.setBaseUri 很重要。 否则，像 /main.css 这样的静态资源将无法找到

    }

    @RequestMapping(path = "/pdf")
    public ResponseEntity<?> getPDF(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException {

        /* Do Business Logic*/

        Order order = OrderHelper.getOrder();

        /* Create HTML using Thymeleaf template Engine */

        WebContext context = new WebContext(request, response, servletContext);
        context.setVariable("orderEntry", order);
        String orderHtml = templateEngine.process("order", context);

        /* Setup Source and target I/O streams */

        ByteArrayOutputStream target = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        ConverterProperties converterProperties = new ConverterProperties();
        converterProperties.setBaseUri("http://localhost:8088");
        /* Call convert method */
        HtmlConverter.convertToPdf(orderHtml, target, converterProperties);

        /* extract output as bytes */
        byte[] bytes = target.toByteArray();

view

Spring MVC 带有模板引擎，可以提供动态的 HTML 内容。 我们可以通过以下方法轻松将这些回复转换为 PDF 格式。 在本例中，我导入了 spring-boot-starter-web 和 spring-boot-starter-thymeleaf 来为我的 spring boot 项目提供 MVC 和 thymeleaf 支持。 您可以使用自己选择的模板引擎。 看看下面这个thymeleaf模板内容。 主要展示订单详细信息。 另外，通过 OrderHelper 的辅助方法来生成一些虚拟订单内容。
