PDF Document setup

[Pasqualino Imbemba <p....@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I’m developing a proof of concept following this paper
http://as.nida.ac.th/~pramote/publications/paper-based_document_authentication_using_digital_sinature_and_qr_code-iccet2012.pdf <http://as.nida.ac.th/~pramote/publications/paper-based_document_authentication_using_digital_sinature_and_qr_code-iccet2012.pdf>

I’d like to create a single sided A4 sized PDF which contains text in two columns and a QR-Code.

Where do I find code examples that could hint me towards the document setup?

Thanks

Hi,

PDFBox is low level so you have to write the column logic yourself. For 
writing to a PDF, look into the examples, e.g. EmbeddedFonts.java in the 
source code download.

To output a barcode, use a library like ZXing. There are examples on 
stackoverflow to convert them into an image. The next level would be to 
convert it into vector graphics.

This is with itext, but you could try this with PDFBox too.
