java代码用itext 识别PDF中的文字然后替换

itext替换PDF的原理就是找到要替换的文字，然后计算他的位置，在哪个位置上生成覆盖层，然后在覆盖层上写内容。

从网上看到的自动计算PDF中文字的位置方法。 

public class PdfConversion {
    // 定义关键字
    private static String KEY_WORD = "张三";
    // 定义返回值
    private static float[] resu = null;
    // 定义返回页码
    private static int i = 0;

    /*
     * 返回关键字所在的坐标和页数 float[0] >> X; float[1] >> Y; float[2] >> page;
     */
    
    public static float[] getKeyWords(String filePath)
    {
        try
        {
            PdfReader pdfReader = new PdfReader(filePath);
            int pageNum = pdfReader.getNumberOfPages();
            System.out.println(pageNum);
            PdfReaderContentParser pdfReaderContentParser = new PdfReaderContentParser(
                    pdfReader);
 
            // 下标从1开始
            for (i = 1; i <= pageNum; i++)
            {
                pdfReaderContentParser.processContent(i, new RenderListener()
                {
 
                    @Override
                    public void renderText(TextRenderInfo textRenderInfo)
                    {
                        String text = textRenderInfo.getText();
                        if (null != text && text.contains(KEY_WORD))
                        {
                            Float boundingRectange = textRenderInfo
                                    .getBaseline().getBoundingRectange();
                            resu = new float[3];
                            System.out.println("======="+text);
                            resu[0] = boundingRectange.x;
                            resu[1] = boundingRectange.y;
                            resu[2] = i;
                        }
                    }
 
                    @Override
                    public void renderImage(ImageRenderInfo arg0)
                    {
                    }
 
                    @Override
                    public void endTextBlock()
                    {
 
                    }
 
                    @Override
                    public void beginTextBlock()
                    {
                    }
                });
            }
        } catch (IOException e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return resu;
    }
}

然后是覆盖层的方法

public class PdfConversion1 {
        
//    @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")

    
    public static final String SRC = "C:/Users/tym/Desktop/template.pdf";
    public static final String DEST = "C:/Users/tym/Desktop/test1.pdf";
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, DocumentException {
        File file = new File(DEST);
        file.getParentFile().mkdirs();
        new PdfConversion1().manipulatePdf(SRC, DEST);
    }
  
    public void manipulatePdf(String src, String dest) throws IOException, DocumentException {
        PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(src);
        PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, new FileOutputStream(dest));
        float[] result = PdfConversion.getKeyWords(src); //1
        PdfContentByte canvas = stamper.getOverContent((int) result[2]);
//        float height=595;
//        System.out.println(canvas.getHorizontalScaling());
        float x,y;
        x= result[0];//2
        y = result[1];//3
        canvas.saveState();
        canvas.setColorFill(BaseColor.WHITE);
        canvas.rectangle(x, y, 40, 20);//设置覆盖面的大小
        
        canvas.fill();
        canvas.restoreState();
      //开始写入文本 
        canvas.beginText(); 
        //BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont(URLDecoder.decode(CutAndPaste.class.getResource("/AdobeSongStd-Light.otf").getFile()), BaseFont.IDENTITY_H, BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
        BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont("STSong-Light", "UniGB-UCS2-H", BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
        Font font = new Font(bf,10,Font.BOLD); 
        //设置字体和大小 
        canvas.setFontAndSize(font.getBaseFont(), 15);  
        //设置字体的输出位置 
        canvas.setTextMatrix(x, y-1);  
        //要输出的text 
        canvas.showText("田田田" );   
        
        //设置字体的输出位置 
        canvas.setFontAndSize(font.getBaseFont(), 20);  
        canvas.setTextMatrix(x, y-90);  
        //要输出的text 
        canvas.showText("多退少补" );   
        
        canvas.endText();
        stamper.close();
        reader.close();
        System.out.println("complete");
    }
}

就可以实现替换了。不过缺点是假如你要复制的话，复制的还是底层的内容，而不是你覆盖的新内容。
