How to center a text using PDFBox

Viewed 30951

My question is very simple: how can I center a text on a PDF, using PDFBox?

I don't know the string in advance, I can't find the middle by trial. The string doesn't always have the same width.

I need either:

  • A method that can center the text, something like addCenteredString(myString)
  • A method that can give me the width of the string in pixels. I can then calculate the center, for I know the dimensions of the PDF.

Any help is welcome!
