How to generate xml layout to PDF file and save it by date and time

Well, we have already discussed “Send Data and Generate Downloadable PDF File” in the previous tutorial, but that tutorial saves the PDF file and opens it automatically once it is downloaded.

We saved the file with only one name, if you create a new input data and download it as PDF the old PDF replace a new PDF which means you can create a new PDF using this app When you download the new PDF, you will find that the old one with the same name PDF file replaces a new PDF file.

The solution to this problem is a different name according to date and time wise download Linear Layout to PDF file. When you save your PDF file, save it by date and time so that you can download unlimited PDFs, but can’t open automatically because it saved different names.

What is included in this tutorial?

We will cover the following topics in the tutorial.

  • How to generate XML layout in PDF file?
  • How to generate PDF file with different name?
  • How to generate PDF file and save to date and time wise.
  • Send data from one activity to another and generate a downloadable PDF file.
  • How to create PDF file and save it with different name?

We will solve all the above questions in this tutorial.

Although we have already covered this topic but this tutorial has been updated.

So friends, let’s start creating PDF files.

How to generate layout to PDF file and save by date and time?

Step: 1

Create a new project.

Step 2:

Go to activity_main.xml.

App ⇾res⇾layout.

We will add imageview, textview and button to view the data.

The complete code of activity_main.xml is given below.

activity_main.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">

  <ImageView
      android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/mlt"
      android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/mrt"
      android:layout_width="100dp"
      android:layout_height="100dp"
      android:src="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
      android:id="@+id/avatar"
      android:layout_gravity="center"/>
<EditText
    android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/mlt"
    android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/mrt"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/fname"
    android:inputType="text"
    android:hint="First Name"/>

    <EditText
        android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/mlt"
        android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/mrt"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/lname"
        android:inputType="text"
        android:hint="Last Name"/>
    <EditText
        android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/mlt"
        android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/mrt"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/email"
        android:inputType="textEmailAddress"
        android:hint="Email Id"/>
    <EditText
        android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/mlt"
        android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/mrt"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/mobile"
        android:inputType="number"
        android:hint="Mobile No."/>
    <EditText
        android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/mlt"
        android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/mrt"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/age"
        android:inputType="number"
        android:hint="Age"/>
        <Button
            android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/mlt"
            android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/mrt"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:id="@+id/view"
            android:text="view"/>
</LinearLayout>

Step 3:

We need some permission to write and read data.

Open AndroidManifest.xml

App⇾manifests⇾AndroidManifest.xml

Add following dependencies in AndroidManifest.xml

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

Step 4:

Open MainActivity.java and creating some method like

findId() for id casting,

private void findId() {
        avatar=(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.avatar);
        fname=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.fname);
        lname=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.lname);
        email=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.email);
        mobile=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.mobile);
        age=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.age);
        view=(Button)findViewById(R.id.view);
    }

pickImage() for pick image from gallery and display in imageview in android.

private void pickImage() {
        avatar.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @RequiresApi(api = Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                int avatar=0;
                if (avatar==0){
                    if (!checkStoragePermission()){
                        requestStoragePermission();
                    }else{
                        pickFromGallery();
                    }
                }
            }
        });
    }

pickFromGallery()for pick image from gallery and show in imageview

private void pickFromGallery() {
        Intent intent=new Intent();
        intent.setType("image/jpg/png");
        intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
        startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent,"Pick Image"),101);
    }

 displayData() When click on button go to other activity and display data.

private void displayData() {
        view.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Intent intent=new Intent(MainActivity.this,MainActivity2.class);
                intent.putExtra("avatar",imageViewToByte());
                intent.putExtra("fname",fname.getText().toString());
                intent.putExtra("lname",lname.getText().toString());
                intent.putExtra("email",email.getText().toString());
                intent.putExtra("mobile",mobile.getText().toString());
                intent.putExtra("age",age.getText().toString());
                startActivity(intent);
            }
        });
    }

The complete code of MainActivity.java is given below.

            break;
        }
    }
}

Step 5:

Now we want a new activity to show the data and create a PDF file.

Create a new empty Activity.

App⇾java⇾right click on package name⇾new ⇾Activity⇾Empty Activity

You can name it whatever you want, the default name given is MainActivity2.java

Step 6:

Go to the activity_main2.xml

Create a view data layout file.

The complete code of activity_main2.xml is given below.

            <TextView
                android:textSize="10dp"
                android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"

                android:background="@drawable/logo"/>
        </RelativeLayout>
    </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

Step 7:

Go to MainActivity2.java

In the MainActivity2.java file, we will also create some methods like Mainactivity.java.

Like

 findId() for id casting.

private void findId() {
        avatarview = (ImageView) findViewById ( R.id.avatarview );
        fnameview = (TextView) findViewById ( R.id.fnameview );
        lnameview = (TextView) findViewById ( R.id.lnameview );
        emailview = (TextView) findViewById ( R.id.emailview );
        mobileview = (TextView) findViewById ( R.id.mobileview );
        ageview = (TextView) findViewById ( R.id.ageview );
        linearLayout = findViewById ( R.id.lld );
        save = findViewById ( R.id.save );
    }

ViewData() for view data that send by MainActivity.java.

private void viewData() {
        Intent intent = getIntent ();
        byte[] bytes = intent.getByteArrayExtra ( "avatar" );
        Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray ( bytes, 0, bytes.length );
        avatarview.setImageBitmap ( bitmap );
        String fname = intent.getStringExtra ( "fname" );
        String lname = intent.getStringExtra ( "lname" );
        String email = intent.getStringExtra ( "email" );
        String mobile = intent.getStringExtra ( "mobile" );
        String age = intent.getStringExtra ( "age" );

        //set view
        fnameview.setText ( ":-" + fname.toString () );
        lnameview.setText ( ":-" + lname.toString () );
        emailview.setText ( ":-" + email.toString () );
        mobileview.setText ( ":-" + mobile.toString () );
        ageview.setText ( ":-" + age.toString () );
    }

savedPDF(); for saving PDF file with different name

private void savePdf() {
        save.setOnClickListener ( new View.OnClickListener () {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Log.d ( "size", linearLayout.getWidth () + " " + linearLayout.getHeight () );
                bitmap = loadBitmapFromView ( linearLayout, linearLayout.getWidth (), linearLayout.getHeight () );
                createPdf ();
            }
        } );
    }

createPdf() for generate downloadable a PDF file

private void createPdf() {
        DisplayMetrics displayMetrics = new DisplayMetrics ();
        this.getWindowManager ().getDefaultDisplay ().getMetrics ( displayMetrics );
        float height = displayMetrics.heightPixels;
        float width = displayMetrics.widthPixels;

        int convertHeight = (int) height,
                convertWidth = (int) width;

        PdfDocument document = new PdfDocument ();
        PdfDocument.PageInfo pageInfo = new PdfDocument.PageInfo.Builder ( convertWidth, convertHeight, 1 ).create ();
        PdfDocument.Page page = document.startPage ( pageInfo );

        Canvas canvas = page.getCanvas ();
        Paint paint = new Paint ();
        canvas.drawPaint ( paint );
        bitmap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap ( bitmap, convertWidth, convertHeight, true );
        canvas.drawBitmap ( bitmap, 0, 0, null );
        document.finishPage ( page );

        Calendar instance = Calendar.getInstance ();
        String format = new SimpleDateFormat ( "MM/dd/yyyy", Locale.getDefault () ).format ( instance.getTime () );
        String format2 = new SimpleDateFormat ( "HH:mm:ss", Locale.getDefault () ).format ( instance.getTime () );
        String[] split = format.split ( "/" );
        String[] split2 = format2.split ( ":" );
        String str = (split[0] + split[1] + split[2]) + (split2[0] + split2[1] + split2[2]) + "_course code";

        String targetPdf = "sdcard/" + str + ".pdf";
        File filepath = new File ( targetPdf );
        try {
            document.writeTo ( new FileOutputStream ( filepath ) );
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace ();
            Toast.makeText ( this, "something want wrong try again" + e.toString (), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT ).show ();
        }
        //close document
        document.close ();
        //progress bar
        ProgressDialog progressDialog;
        progressDialog = new ProgressDialog ( this );
        progressDialog.setMessage ( "Saving..." + targetPdf );
        progressDialog.show ();

        new Handler ().postDelayed ( new Runnable () {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                progressDialog.cancel ();
            }
        }, 5000 );
    }
