Constructor Detail

PDFPrintable

public PDFPrintable(PDDocument document)

Creates a new PDFPrintable.

Parameters:

document - the document to print

PDFPrintable

public PDFPrintable(PDDocument document,
                    Scaling scaling)

Creates a new PDFPrintable with the given page scaling.

Parameters:

document - the document to print

scaling - page scaling policy

PDFPrintable

public PDFPrintable(PDDocument document,
                    Scaling scaling,
                    boolean showPageBorder)

Creates a new PDFPrintable with the given page scaling and with optional page borders shown.

Parameters:

document - the document to print

scaling - page scaling policy

showPageBorder - true if page borders are to be printed

PDFPrintable

public PDFPrintable(PDDocument document,
                    Scaling scaling,
                    boolean showPageBorder,
                    float dpi)

showPageBorder - true if page borders are to be printed

dpi - if non-zero then the image will be rasterized at the given DPI

center - true if the content is to be centered on the page (otherwise top-left).

Method Detail

isSubsamplingAllowed

public boolean isSubsamplingAllowed()

Value indicating if the renderer is allowed to subsample images before drawing, according to image dimensions and requested scale. Subsampling may be faster and less memory-intensive in some cases, but it may also lead to loss of quality, especially in images with high spatial frequency.

Returns:

true if subsampling of images is allowed, false otherwise.

setSubsamplingAllowed

public void setSubsamplingAllowed(boolean subsamplingAllowed)

Sets a value instructing the renderer whether it is allowed to subsample images before drawing. The subsampling frequency is determined according to image size and requested scale. Subsampling may be faster and less memory-intensive in some cases, but it may also lead to loss of quality, especially in images with high spatial frequency.

Parameters:

subsamplingAllowed - The new value indicating if subsampling is allowed.

print

public int print(Graphics graphics,
                 PageFormat pageFormat,
                 int pageIndex)
          throws PrinterException

Specified by:

print in interface Printable

Throws:

PrinterException
