I am currently involved with the development a Windows95/98 application using Borland's JBuilder. However, I am relatively inexperienced with the java language and also using pdf files so any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is a brief explanation of what we are trying to accomplish with the application: First, it should open an existing pdf file created using Adobe Acrobat and print the file on a 4 by 6 in. card (Adobe Acrobat does not appear to support these print specifications). Secondly, it should create new pdf files from a user's input and then also be able to print these files. I have found several java class libraries on the internet that seem as they could be useful in enabling an application to do both of these functions. Am I right in this assumption? The other approach that I could take is to have the application write the textfile as if it were going to the printer and then open that file as a pdf file? Has anyone written a similar application using JBuilder? If so, what approach did you use and do you have any suggestions/advice you would be willing to share with me?
