display an image in pdf

["Haddy, Diane E" <di...@uiowa.edu>]

Hello

I have two questions.  I would like to display a .gif image into a pdf.  Can I use PDJpeg class for .gif image?

And in this piece of code, which I got form the internet:

String imageName = "/images/arrow.gif;

  PDXObjectImage image = new PDJpeg(doc, new FileInputStream(imageName));
  PDPageContentStream content = new PDPageContentStream (doc, page)
  content.drawImage(image, 200, 500)
  content.close();

  doc.save(fileName)
  doc.close();

the file path is in the web directory of my java project.  However when I run this, I get FileNotFoundException.  Any suggestions?

Thank you
Diane

Better use PDPixelMap for gif files. Just read it into a BufferedImage 
with ImageIO.read().

The second problem ("file path is in the web directory of my java 
project") sounds like you're doing a tomcat project. 
"/images/arrow.gif"is wrong for sure, obviously your image isn't there, 
maybe "images/arrow.gif" would be correct, maybe not. Do this to find 
out where you are:

System.out.println (new File(".").getAbsolutePath());

then search where your image directory is relative to that.
