[Kristoffer John Ducay]

im very new to JAVA, im not a computer programming expert, just finished 1 subject on Java programming using netbeans.. having fun with the GUIs

my problem right now is i want to create a report which will be made into a pdf file.

can somebody help me on how to do this?

i found (itext) but i dont know how to use it.. too much computer jargon.

can somebody give me the proper JAVA code or syntax for a simple "hello world" program that will write

"hello world" +picture in a pdf file

im using netbeans right now

Uncle google might help you.

tried it. but somehow, i found it hard to follow. or maybe i dont know what keywords to search for. the best i can do for now is create *.txt file. mas nice tana to pdf with forms, pictures, and watermarks..

im not a programming proffesional by the way. im just using to java to automate some of my calculations. mas nice tana if mka generate ko reports in pdf format para dali ra send sa client and at the same time, dili ma edit ang isulat + other security features (like company logo watermarks)

-so, you want to create a program with forms. fill up the form then generate a pdf(clicking a button)?
-the generated pdf should have the company logo watermark and the values you inputted on the forms?

P.S: the links above are really helpful.
