Crear documentos PDF con Java

Java | June 21st

Utilizaremos el proyecto open source Apache FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) que nos da una serie de funciones para convertir un documento XML a un documento PDF, PS, Texto entre otros.

Este proyecto toma un archivo XSL-FO y lo convierte en formato PDF, por lo que habrá que convertir primero nuestro archivo XML a XSL-FO antes de convertirlo a un documento PDF.

Archivos XML y XSLT

Vamos a crear dos archivos, el primero será en formato xml. En este archivo se guardarán los datos de nuestro documento PDF.

Archivo glossary.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<glossary>
<term-entry>
	<term>basic-link</term>
	<definition>The fo:basic-link is used for representing the start resource
	of a simple link.</definition>
</term-entry>
<term-entry>
	<term>bidi-override</term>
	<definition>The fo:bidi-override inline formatting object is used where
	it is necessary to override the default Unicode-bidirectionality
	algorithm direction for different (or nested) inline scripts in
	mixed-language documents.</definition>
</term-entry>
<term-entry>
	<term>block</term>
	<definition>The fo:block formatting object is commonly used for formatting
	paragraphs, titles, headlines, figure and table captions, etc.</definition>
</term-entry>

Archivo glossary.xslt

Convertir documento XML a XSL-FO

El proyecto Apache FOP incluye las librerías: FOP, Logger, Graphics, Xerces, XML y XSLT.

import org.apache.avalon.framework.logger.*;
import org.apache.fop.apps.*;
import org.xml.sax.InputSource;
import org.xml.sax.*;
import org.w3c.dom.*;

public void generarXSLFO(File archivoXML, File archivoXSLT)
{
	try {
		System.setProperty("javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory", "org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl");
		System.setProperty("javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory", "org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl");

		DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
		DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
		Document documento = builder.parse(archivoXML);

		TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
		StreamSource stylesource = new StreamSource(archivoXSLT);

		Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(stylesource);
		DOMSource source = new DOMSource(documento);

		StreamResult result = new StreamResult("glossary.fo");
		transformer.transform(source, result);

	} catch (TransformerConfigurationException e) {
		System.out.println(e.getMessage());
	} catch (TransformerException e) {
		System.out.println(e.getMessage());
	} catch (SAXException e) {
		System.out.println(e.getMessage());
	} catch (ParserConfigurationException e) {
		System.out.println(e.getMessage());
	} catch (IOException e) {
		System.out.println(e.getMessage());
	}
}

Generar documento PDF

Una vez generados el archivo glossary.fo, podemos generar nuestro documento PDF.

public void generarPDF()
{
	try {
		Driver driver = new Driver();
		Logger logger = new ConsoleLogger(ConsoleLogger.LEVEL_INFO);
		driver.setLogger(logger);
		org.apache.fop.messaging.MessageHandler.setScreenLogger(logger);
		driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);

		InputStream input = new FileInputStream(new File("glossary.fo"));
		driver.setInputSource(new InputSource(input));

		OutputStream output = new FileOutputStream(new File("glossary.pdf"));
		driver.setOutputStream(output);

		driver.run();
		output.flush();
		output.close();

	} catch (IOException e) {
		System.out.println(e.getMessage());
	} catch (org.apache.fop.apps.FOPException e) {
		System.out.println(e.getMessage());
	}
}
