I have an arrayList of objects with same attributes. I want create a pdf with one table that have many cells as the length of the list and as many columns as the fields of the object. I stay using the library iTextG, but I succeeded only create a paragraph with title (I took the code on stackOverflow): the code below..



public void createandDisplayPdf() {



        Document doc = new Document();



        try {

            String path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + "/Dir";



            File dir = new File(path);

            if(!dir.exists())

                dir.mkdirs();



            File file = new File(dir, "GestioneAccreditati.pdf");

            FileOutputStream fOut = new FileOutputStream(file);



            PdfWriter.getInstance(doc, fOut);



            //open the document

            doc.open();



            Paragraph p1 = new Paragraph("GESTIONE ACCREDITATI");

            //Font paraFont= new Font(0);

            p1.setAlignment(Paragraph.ALIGN_CENTER);

            //p1.setFont(paraFont);



            //add paragraph to document





            doc.add(p1);



        } catch (DocumentException de) {

            Log.e("PDFCreator", "DocumentException:" + de);

        } catch (IOException e) {

            Log.e("PDFCreator", "ioException:" + e);

        }

        finally {

            doc.close();

        }



        viewPdf("GestioneAccreditati.pdf", "Dir");

    }



    // Method for opening a pdf file

    private void viewPdf(String file, String directory) {



        File pdfFile = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/" + directory + "/" + file);

        Uri path = Uri.fromFile(pdfFile);



        // Setting the intent for pdf reader

        Intent pdfIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);

        pdfIntent.setDataAndType(path, "application/pdf");

        pdfIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);



        try {

            startActivity(pdfIntent);

        } catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {

            Toast.makeText(this, "Can't read pdf file", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

        }

    }
