  • 1.  ITX Conversion of Text to PDF format

    Posted Tue September 15, 2020 04:32 AM
    Dear Team,

    Can anyone help to share on the conversion of Text format data into PDF format uneditable?
    No need of any mapping translation, just convert into PDF layout.

    Any sample map you can provide will be appreciated.


    Thanks
    Siva

    Hi Matthias,

    Thank you for your reply.
    Yes, I am referring to ITX but not sure if IIB has the capability to do the transformation to pdf.

    At IIB/ACE this capability is not built-in. One can purchase 3rd party nodes or work with self-developed Java code to handle PDF Documents.
    What you mean with uneditable PDF?
    Do you know Paul from HCL? He has talent in the field of creating PDF with ITX

    In general the PDF reader decides what the user can do with the PDF.
    Most of the time the reader respects the wishes of the PDF Writer - but not always.
    Converting Text into an Image is sometimes the best approach to prevent a user from Copy and Paste text into another tool.

    Hi Matthias,

    Thank you for the guidance, When I say uneditable i was referring to PDF.
    My requirement is to convert a text-editable format to PDF format which cannot be editable.

    I saw the videos from Paul demo on ITX using XML to PDF, I am exploring on that now.

    Will keep you posted on the progress..Thank you once again.
