      • setHtmlText

        public void setHtmlText​(String htmlText)
        Sets the HTML content of the editor. Note that if the contentEditable property on the <body> tag of the provided HTML is not set to true, the HTMLEditor will become read-only. You can ensure that the text remains editable by ensuring the body appears as such: 
        
 <body contentEditable="true">
        Parameters:
        htmlText - the full HTML markup to put into the editor. This should include all normal HTML elements, starting with <html>, and including a <body>.

      • print

        public void print​(PrinterJob job)
        Prints the content of the editor using the given printer job.

        This method does not modify the state of the job, nor does it call PrinterJob.endJob(), so the job may be safely reused afterwards.

        Parameters:
        job - printer job used for printing
