如何通过iText读取PDF文件并像在Adobe Reader中一样显示它？

Question

I use com.itextpdf.text.pdf.PdfReader and com.itextpdf.text.pdf.parser.PdfTextExtractor package, and tried:

String pagedata=PdfTextExtractor.getTextFromPage(reader,pageno)

and put the pagedata into a JTextArea.

But by doing this it skips all the images and font sizes and colors and shows only same-sized text data.

I want to fetch all full fledged page by page data as in Adobe Reader. How can I do this and in which component should I place the fetched page? Obviously not on JTextArea...

Answer 1

You can use Desktop class to call Adobe Reader.

Desktop.getDesktop().open(file.pdf);
// where file.pdf is your file instance.
