初学PDF类库 itext

使用PDF类库itext2.1.4

1.生成简单hello world级别PDF文件
 * 引入itext.2.1.4.jar
  import com.lowagie.text.*;
 
 * 生成文档对象: Document document = new Document();
 * 生成PdfWriter对象: PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("d:\\helloworldB.pdf"));
 * 打开文档对象: document.open();
 * 给文档加入内容对象: document.add(new Chunk("Hello World!"));
  Chunk是可加入的最小单元，其它可加入对象还有Phrase Paragraph等
 * 关闭文档对象: document.close();
 
2.更改默认分隔符，当文本内容太长需要换行时，itext会根据分隔符截断文本进行换行
 * 使用setSplitCharacter(SplitCharacter splitCharacter)方法
 
 * SplitCharacter是一个接口，需要我们传递一个类实现它的isSplitCharacter方法
  参见splitCharacter()方法或itext文档
  
 * 无意间发现: 在对一个对象改变内容后,有可能会影响到前面已经使用过这个对象的地方
  Chunk chunk = new Chunk("a");
  Paragraph paragraph = new Paragraph(chunk);
  //此时paragraph 的内容应该是"a";
  chunk.append("bc");
  //此时paragraph 的内容就改变成是"abc";
  参见testChange()方法
