Hello
I've come to the point, when I need to display rich text with html markups in output PDF.
PDF is going to be printed and I don't want anything to be editable.
I've started with xsd schema for the xdp template, where particular element looks like this:
<xs:element name="note">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:simpleContent>
<xs:extension base="xs:string">
<xs:attribute ref="xfa:contentType" fixed="text/html"/>
</xs:extension>
</xs:simpleContent>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
in xdp form, I am using TextField with RichText option switched on, value type: Read Only
as a test, xml data, which I am passing into it, looks like this:
<note>
<body xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<b>Note</b>
<a href='http://somepage.com'>homepage</a>
<img src = 'pdficon.png'/>
</body>
</note>
It comes from the html snippet, which is also displayed in java web application using the wicket framework, so no problem with that in web browser.
In general, it works, I am not getting any parsing errors or other exceptions from LC.
Now, my questions are:
1.hyperlink is displayed correctly in blue color and underlined, but it is not clickable ... is it because of the ReadOnly option?
2. Obviously, image is skipped. I don't expect that to be shown in textField, also there is not real path to that image, but I wonder, is it
possible to display it in some other way? Or, to be more precise, is it possible to interpret <img src... correctly in PDF?
3. I understand from some other thread in this forum, that it is not possible to paste html snippet into PDF directly?
Many thanks
Martin
