      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)
      Creates a new PDFPrintable with the given page scaling and with optional page borders shown. The image will be rasterized at the given DPI before being sent to the printer.
      Parameters:
      document - the document to print
      scaling - page scaling policy
      showPageBorder - true if page borders are to be printed
      dpi - if non-zero then the image will be rasterized at the given DPI
    • PDFPrintable

      public PDFPrintable(PDDocument document, Scaling scaling, boolean showPageBorder, float dpi, boolean center)
      Creates a new PDFPrintable with the given page scaling and with optional page borders shown. The image will be rasterized at the given DPI before being sent to the printer.
      Parameters:
      document - the document to print
      scaling - page scaling policy
      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).
    • PDFPrintable

      public PDFPrintable(PDDocument document, Scaling scaling, boolean showPageBorder, float dpi, boolean center, PDFRenderer renderer)
      Creates a new PDFPrintable with the given page scaling and with optional page borders shown. The image will be rasterized at the given DPI before being sent to the printer.
      Parameters:
      document - the document to print
      scaling - page scaling policy
      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).
      renderer - the document renderer. Useful if PDFRenderer has been subclassed.
  • Method Details

    • 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.
    • getRenderingHints

      public RenderingHints getRenderingHints()
      Get the rendering hints.
      Returns:
      the rendering hints or null if none are set.
    • setRenderingHints

      public void setRenderingHints(RenderingHints renderingHints)
      Set the rendering hints. Use this to influence rendering quality and speed. If you don't set them yourself or pass null, PDFBox will decide at runtime depending on the destination.
      Parameters:
      renderingHints -
