I have a XHTML file with text fields and check boxes; when i am trying to convert my xhtml to pdf using ITextRenderer; iText is dropping form fields (like checkboxes and text boxes in pdf).
my code looks
ITextRenderer renderer = new ITextRenderer ();
renderer.setDocument(new File("input.xhtml").toURI().toURL.toString());
renderer.layout();
renderer.createPDF("outputstream");
Can some one provide sample code snippet to handle the above scenario using iText; i am using iText 5.1.3 version.
My XHTML looks like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
