How to convert JPEG to PDF
Hi guys!
I have the requirement to convert JPG to PDF. I already have pyFileSource property (I think that it is like a stream). I need to convert this stream to PDF format and place it instead of old pyFileSource property. How can I do it? Thanks in advance!
P.S. I already tried different ways from PDN articles

@Artsiom_Sukhanau - You can try using iText to convert jpg to pdf. Pega already ships with iText jar so I don't think we need to import anything.

@KALINGAROUT hello! Thanks for your reply☺
But in that article we work with physical files
But I have a case and its clipboard. So I need to create logical PDF in Java with my pyFileSource property, convert it to stream back and replace current pyFileSource (which has stream of uploaded JPEG) with a stream of newly created PDF. So user after pressing the button "Download file" must get PDF instead of JPG.
Here is example of pyFileSource property (JPEG):

@Artsiom_Sukhanau - Please refer the below link. In this they are converting the existing attachments of case into pdf file and then attaching it to the case. You can find the java code in the below link.
