can not get file to display
Hi
I am trying to get a pdf file to display using pdfbox.
I can only get a plain box.
I am not sure what I am doing wrong, I have attached the two files to
this email, please forgive me if I have got something wrong I am just a
beginner.
Any help gratefully received.
Gerry

Here's some 1.8 code that "almost" works, i.e. it does display a PDF
page from a fixed file. There's still a problem with the GUI elements,
the two "super.add()" are probably not correct. It is reduced from your
code.
- don't close PDF file
- static object
- loadNonSeq

OK, good luck. Sorry I couldn't help much. Btw if you're just starting,
I recommend you to go right to 2.0, as 1.8.10 has display problems with
many files. For GUI applications, see in the source code of PDFDebugger
how to display.

Hi Tilman
I managed to open it from the command line so I am going to play with that.
Again thank you very much for your help.
I will let you know if I have any success.

Hi,
I doubt you're using 2.0 - PDFPagePanel does not exist in 2.0.
Your code now has three classes, two of them have a "main", and two of
them extend "JFrame". I assume that "NewJFrame" is the one to start.
You're closing the document while it is displayed. Even if I remove that
line "inputPDF.close();", the document is still being closed (that is
the warning "You did not close a PDF Document").
I suspect you're "losing" some object that (indirectly) holds the
PDDocument object. I did manage to avoid the effect by keeping this
object as static, but even I can't display the page :-(
The problem is that I'm not a java GUI specialist. Last time we needed
such expertise, we hired a guy and google paid the bill (Google summer
of code 2015).

Hi
Thank you for your kind reply.
Sorry that my code was incomplete, I have attached a fuller version to
this message.
I am using 2.0.0 .
When you say "PrepareFile is never constructed " . The constructor is in
the file or am I missing something?
Kind Regards

Hi,
Assuming that you are using 1.8.10, use the PDFReader command line
application to check that PDFbox 1.8.10 can display your file.
The code you attached is incomplete. The imports and (probably) the line
"public class pdfViewer extends JFrame {" is missing.
PrepareFile is never constructed. (Maybe that too, is in the missing
lines - maybe some static code?)
