How to Scale Images Without loosing readability of images?

[Bhoomika Bathla]

Hi All,

I want to create a Tiff PDF from a list of images.PDF Page needs to be A4 only.I am using iText-5.0.5.jar for converting images to PDF.

But some images are large enough to fit into A4 Size sheet i.e the image gets trunncated. Is there any solution to this problem without loosig the image quality.

Thanks

If the image is too big, you are left with either cutting or scaling them. Either way, you're going to lose information.

Actually the images are like recipts that contains amount.so the text is less visible...Can the text remain intact eve whe we scale the image?

You mean you want to keep the text the same size and only scale the rest of the image?

Yes i want the text to be readable....but the problem is the the text is in the images for which the i am creating the tiff.
