AW: [jdom-interest] Hyperlink in PDF

[Hirschmann, Bernhard]

I just realized that this is the wrong addres for that subject - sorry.

Anyway :) - thanks Eric, that's right, this makes the transformation. But I
can't see how a hyperlink is generated into the PDF document. 

To be more concrete: I need to have a link in the PDF, so I can click on it
the Acrobat Reader. As the result, a browser window should appear with the
linked URL. I know that this is possible with PDFs. But is it possible to
make such links in a PDF without the Arcobat Writer/Distiller?

Perhaps, the question is the ability to use FOP and JDom so the answer
is yes :

    public static final void generatePDF(org.jdom.Document document,
Templates template, OutputStream out) throws FOPException,
TransformerConfigurationException, SAXException {
        TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
        
        XMLFilter xmlFilter =  ((SAXTransformerFactory)
tFactory).newXMLFilter(template);
        xmlFilter.setParent(XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader());
        
        Driver driver = new Driver();
        driver.setRenderer(driver.RENDER_PDF);
        driver.setOutputStream(out);
        driver.render(xmlFilter, (new
JDOMSource(document)).getInputSource());
        driver.reset();
    }

PS. Very sorry Bob, I've just use a Reply and I realize that I send it
twice to you.

Hey Bob,

>> In a PDF it is possible to integrate a hyperlink heading the browser

this
>> URL.

> Yes.

>> Can I do that by using JDOM for gererating a PDF?

> Um, what?


What I want to know is, if it is possible to create a PDF with a FOP
transformation containing a hyperlink?

(Is the question clear now? Otherwise point me to your problem, please.
I hope I can specify the question then.)

Bernhard
