No I do not want pdfwriter because I already tried it and it is inadequate. It does not have the capabilities I want like putting pushbuttons on the pdf or encrypting them (pdf writer''s encryption is broken and removed) but for starters an example would have been nice.

pdf-writer comes with a chunky bacon example if I recall correctly. You could always ''post-process'' a pdf file with pdftk to encrypt it. Don''t know about pushbuttons in pdf''s As far as I know, the rails wiki page on PDF that I linked in the previous e-mail is the exhaustive resource on integrating PDF''s with rails.

I''m just relating that the pdf-stamper gem automatically brings the itext.jar in with it and it is automatically loaded when you load PDF::Stamper. I suppose you could load the gem just to see how that gem makes use of it but the choice is yours. The gem loads it like this...

Yes String is working for example from the irb interface.
I have placed the jar file in script but when I type
Rjb::load(''iText-2.1.2u.jar'') I get an error saying
RuntimeError : unknown error
from (irb):2: in ''initialize''
from (irb):2: in ''dlopen''
from (irb):2: in ''load''

send_data(BINARY_DATA,{:filename=>"asasd.pdf",:type=>"application/pdf"})
send_data at :

I am still attempting to figure out how to send an Itext generated pdf
Document to the browser.
I am looking at the following blog posting where someone is using jruby
and iText to create a pdf file and then sending it to the browser :
http://codersifu.blogspot.com/2007/06/howto-generate-pdf-files-in-ruby-on.html
Unlike the above example I am using only ruby / on rails.
I would like to do precisely this in ROR and I can get to the second
last line of the above blog (that is I can generate the document and
even the toByteArray or byte[] ). As in the example:
document.close // <<<--- I can get this document
send_data String.from_java_bytes(m.toByteArray),
:type=> "application/pdf",
:dispostion=>"inline"
// I can call the toByteArray and get the array of bytes byte[]
but I dont know how to send_data to the browser with the document and
byetarraystream available.
I try to do a byte[].toString() and send that to send_data but when I
get byte[].toString() from the java classes I get an error :
No Class DefFoundError (org/bouncycastle/asn1/ASN1OctetString)
Where to go from here?
From the blog : Is there an equivalent to String.from_java_bytes in
ruby?
