itext, Java, html

Hi,

I am using
org.xhtmlrenderer.pdf.ITextRenderer; to convert an html file to a pdf file

I have everything working except for a stylesheet property. I want to round the corners of <div> tags.

I am using the following which work in the browser but not when I convert to PDF
-moz-border-radius:25px; /* Firefox */
-webkit-border-radius:25px; /* Safari and chrome */
-khtml-border-radius:25px; /* Linux browsers */
border-radius:25px; /* CSS3 */
behavior:url(border-radius.htc); /* IE */

Attached is the html file and java source code.

Thanks!

FWI: I've done this with images but am trying it this way.
DataDictionary-Medications-Medic.html
transformHTMLtoPDF.java

In your code
transformXSD
is not recognized by my Java

I added

iText-2.1.7.jar
and core-renderer-R8pre.jar

and it resolved all other symbols,
but not
transformXSD

Where would I get this?

It looks like I'm using someting incompatible
does not find the method on execution

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.lowagie.text.pdf.BaseFont.getCharBBox(C)[I

this is what is my CLASSPATH
.;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_22\lib\tools.jar;
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server JDBC Driver 3.0\sqljdbc_3.0\enu\sqljdbc4.jar;

C:\Program Files\Java\iText\core-renderer.jar;
C:\Program Files\Java\iText\itext-paulo-155.jar;

Anyway, it is probably useles, but I can't make it compile
when I use this early iText -2,1,7 it knows about this loawgie DocumentException
but has mismatch with some method
When I switch to 5.0.6 it cannot resolve this lowagie exception
Don't know how you guys are doing that - mybe i need
different renderer.
Do you know from where this loawagie.DocumentException comes from which jar?

itext's css support in html conversion is pretty poor and doesn't support things like rounded borders.
They are promising better support in the next version but not much you can do at the moment

objection is based on the fact that I already stated that rounded corners were not supported by itext

objects> itext's css support in html conversion is pretty poor and doesn't support things like rounded borders.

there was no need to replicate, rounded rectangles are not supported in itext
points are awarded for answers, not for effort
