如何在 itext 中设置自定义颜色？

Question

Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.

I'm generating a PDF document using iText in Java. I need to set the column headers of a table a different colour than the ones in the values columns. I have the color hexadecimal value from Photoshop. I'm using PdfPTable with chunks and paragraphs. how do I set them to a different colour, other than the ones predefined in the BaseColor enum?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

You'll need to take your 8-bit hexadecimal color value and convert it to 8-bit RGB values.

How to convert hex to rgb using Java?

Then you'll be able to create a new BaseColor with your RGB values.

cell.setBackgroundColor(new BaseColor(255, 0, 0));

Answer 2

Cell hcell = new Cell();   
Color color = WebColors.getRGBColor("red");
hcell.setBackgroundColor(color);

Answer 3

Take a look at this site . Even though it says C# there are only Java codes. Let me know if you find it or not. I created an successful PDF system looking at those examples.
