Generating PDF file with Images in flutter
Solution 1
I found the solution, I contacted the flutter package maker & he was king enough to guide me to what to do, first he guided me to created the following function out
final data = await rootBundle.load('images/$name');
return data.buffer.asUint8List();
}
Then also he guided me to move the PDF creation method from statless
to statfull
and in the writePDF()
to add the image as the below code
final image = pw.MemoryImage(await _readImageData('header.png'));
now the images are shown in the PDF file with no problems
Solution 2
There is no path to the official file you are trying to add. You can get the file path by right clicking on the picture in the file and clicking copy relative path. then if you are using windows, you can use the file path after converting the '' \ '' s to '/' and putting them under assets in pubseps.yaml.

I need some help please... I am trying to generate a PDF file (text & Images) using flutter, so I used the PDF package
pdf: ^3.3.0
, the text is shown once I generated the PDF file but every time I try to insert an image the below error is showing...even the image is loading in the main screen... the error ismy code is as the following:
import 'dart:io'; import 'dart:typed_data'; import 'package:flutter/cupertino.dart'; import 'package:flutter/material.dart'; import 'package:flutter/services.dart'; import 'package:path_provider/path_provider.dart'; import 'package:pdf/pdf.dart'; import 'package:pdf/widgets.dart' as pw; import 'package:duct_sizer/pdf_preview_screen.dart'; class MyHomePage extends StatelessWidget { final pdf = pw.Document(); final image = pw.MemoryImage(File('images/duct.jpg').readAsBytesSync()); writeOnPdf() async { // final profileImage = pw.MemoryImage( // (await rootBundle.load('images/duct.jpg')).buffer.asUint8List(), // ); pdf.addPage(pw.MultiPage( pageFormat: PdfPageFormat.a5, margin: pw.EdgeInsets.all(32), build: (pw.Context context) { return <pw.Widget>[ pw.Header(level: 0, child: pw.Text("Easy Approach Document")), pw.Paragraph( text: "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

and the PDF preview page is
import 'package:flutter/material.dart'; import 'package:flutter_full_pdf_viewer/flutter_full_pdf_viewer.dart'; import 'package:flutter_full_pdf_viewer/full_pdf_viewer_plugin.dart'; import 'package:flutter_full_pdf_viewer/full_pdf_viewer_scaffold.dart'; class PDFPreviewScreen extends StatelessWidget { final String path; PDFPreviewScreen({this.path}); @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return PDFViewerScaffold( path: path, ); } }
please assets me
This is a new update on the pubspec.yaml file which shows the dependencies & the images identifications also As I said earlier the photo is displayed in the main App direct, but the the PDF this error will happen
-
Xihuny almost 3 yearsDid you declare image in
pubspec.yaml
? -
SameJall almost 3 yearsYes, also I added the Image to the App screen to make sure that the image is there.
-
Xihuny almost 3 yearsyou need to write the path as
assets/images/header.png
. -
SameJall almost 3 yearsStill Same Issue if I kept the code ``` class MySecondHomePage extends StatelessWidget { final pdf = pw.Document(); final image = pw.MemoryImage((File('assets/images/duct.jpg')).readAsBytesSync()); Future writeOnPdf() async { pdf.addPage(pw.Page( pageFormat: PdfPageFormat.a4,``` the same error
-
SameJall almost 3 yearsbut if I changed the code to
class MySecondHomePage extends StatelessWidget { final pdf = pw.Document(); Future writeOnPdf() async { final image = pw.MemoryImage((File('assets/images/duct.jpg')).readAsBytesSync()); pdf.addPage(pw.Page( pageFormat: PdfPageFormat.a4,
a different error will happen but the screen will be white only -
SameJall almost 3 yearsthe new error
E/flutter (18539): [ERROR:flutter/lib/ui/ui_dart_state.cc(199)] Unhandled Exception: FileSystemException: Cannot open file, path = 'assets/images/duct.jpg' (OS Error: No such file or directory, errno = 2) E/flutter (18539): #0 _File.throwIfError (dart:io/file_impl.dart:635:7)

SameJall almost 3 yearsI already added the images folder to
pubseps.yaml
... but the same result. -
hasan karaman almost 3 yearsYou made the addition wrong. You may have made a mistake on the page. The part where you add pubsepc.yaml must be properly aligned. Please pay attention to her.
