    Is there a character limit on this facility? For some reason it cuts a long description off half way.

    Thanks, Lee

    The trick with dynamic date utilizes PDF form fields. Currently PD4ML has no impact to the fields style (except box size). There are also other known issues – for example if the text to be shown in the field is too long, Acroread decreases its font size to make the text fit the space, which may appear unexpected.

    We plan to investigate into the issue next week on Thursday. Hopefully we’ll find a solution.

    You may implement PD4PageMark.getHtmlTemplate(int) method, to return different footer definitions depending on a page number. See the last code sample on

    http://pd4ml.com/cookbook/pdf_header_footer_generation.htm

    PD4PageMark.setInitialPageNumber(-2) should (in theory) set page number 1 to the third page.

    There is no way to reset page numbering. But you may generate two PDF documents with independent page numbering and to merge them. As far as I remember your PD4ML version supports PD4ML.merge()

    Good morning,

    I am using the layoutbox feature for a bedrooms list on a brochure, because it varies in size it always needs to fit one page hence using it, however it seems to cut the content half way if the rooms list is really long..

    Is there a character limit on it? Because it always reaches a certain point then will just stop adding any more text. Below is the exact tag I am using;

    Content here

    Can I either set the characters limit, or is there anything I have done wrong?

    Thanks,
    Lee

    I have read about the repeating table header feature.

    We have a section (DIV) that is printed on bottom of one page and then repeated on the next page (on top).

    Source HTML doesn’t have that duplicated DIV. Unfortunately I cannot attach source here.

    Has anybody else experienced this problem?

    Good morning, any news on this yet? I am really keen to get the page working.

    Or if there is any other way I can get flowing columns working on a single page?

    Kind regards,

    Did you try to reduce scalelimit attribute value?

    in reply to: using <pd4ml-layoutbox>
    #28912

    Yes I put it right down to 0.20 to test that and it still cut the text off at the same point even though the text now fitted easily with lots of extra space for the remainder of the text, Lee

    Hello,

    We are facing a strange problem with the pd4ml product. We run out of memory when we try to generate pdf from the HTML page having image of specific dimension and css.

    HTML page has an image of dimension around 414 X 233 and some css is getting applied on it. Below is the html code snippet

    The css which is getting applied on the image is:
    #main-col .article .inline-left-image-wrapper {
    float: left;
    margin: 0 10px 0 0;
    }

    img.inline-left-image {
    float: left;
    clear: left;
    margin: 0 10px 5px 0;
    }

    When either “float: left;” is removed from css (highlighted above in red) or if we change the dimensions of the image, pdf is generated without any problem but when we generate pdf keeping the same css and dimension of the image, we run out of memory.

    In our error log we get the exception:
    Uncaught Throwable java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

    In stdout.log file which shows the progress of the pdf generation seems to get stuck at generation pdf step:

    Please suggest what could be the cause of the issue. We can share our HTML file and css and other required resources to debug this issue. We are currently using the latest licensed version of pd4ml.

    We’ve got a couple of reports, that the layoutbox and multi-column layout feature work not always stable. We plan to address the issues and fix with the new maintenance release.

    I would estimate 2-3 weeks for that.

    Please send the source HTML document (+resources, logs and may be some comments) to support pd4ml com. We’ll address the issue on Friday.

    in reply to: RTF features
    #28771

    We’ll check what could be done there.
    It looks like a mismatch of dimentions, calculated during HTML layouting, and factual dimensions in RTF documents.

    A fix can take 1-1.5 weeks.

    Thanks. Let me know if you need any beta testing 🙂

    OK, have there been any similar reports about the amount of characters it allows or could that be something at my end?

    Also just to clarify…multicolumn is for use on all pages and it cannot be used on a single page I am guessing?

    Kind regards,

    #28900

    I changed a file URL to an html URL. It tests properly on my site but when it is run on the customer site a 401 Forbidden error occurs. They are using https and port 443 on JBoss 5.1 Is this configuration a problem?

    Best,
