Iam trying to inflate a layout into a pdf with PdfDocument. In the design view everything looks ok, but when the pdf is created, spaces arent preserved. As you can see in pictures i want the spaces exactly like the first one.Any ideas?
Iam trying to inflate a layout into a pdf with PdfDocument. In the design view everything looks ok, but when the pdf is created, spaces arent preserved. As you can see in pictures i want the spaces exactly like the first one.Any ideas?
// create a new document
PdfDocument document = new PdfDocument();
// crate a page description
PdfDocument.PageInfo pageInfo = new PdfDocument.PageInfo.Builder(800, 1124, 1).create();
// start a page
PdfDocument.Page page = document.startPage(pageInfo);
// draw something on the page
View content = MainActivity.this.getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.pdf_page, null);
content.measure(800, 1124);
content.layout(0, 0, 800, 1124);
content.draw(page.getCanvas());
// finish the page
document.finishPage(page);
document.writeTo(fos);
Pdf.layout

You can try taking TableLayout
rather than CoordinatorLayout
Study android:stretchColumns="1"
attribute of TableLayout
. Wish your problem will be solved. Have a look on following code:
<TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/simpleTableLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:stretchColumns="1"> <!-- stretch the second column of the layout-->
<!-- first row of the table layout-->
<TableRow
android:id="@+id/firstRow"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<!-- first element of the row-->
<TextView
android:id="@+id/simpleTextView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#b0b0b0"
android:padding="18dip"
android:text="Text 1"
android:textColor="#000"
android:textSize="12dp" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/simpleTextView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#FF0000"
android:padding="18dip"
android:text="Text 2"
android:textColor="#000"
android:textSize="14dp" />
</TableRow>
</TableLayout>
