This is a generic internationalization problem, it doesn't depend on iText. I don't know what you'd expect iText to do.

The "Page X of" text is built for each page in the onEndPage() method. Then the string is augmented in the onCloseDocument() method with the total page count. Any advice on how to do this using an internationalized approach? For example: Object[] args = { new Integer(1), new Integer(3) }; String pageXofY = MessageBundle.getString("pageXofY"); MessageFormat format = new MessageFormat(getString(key), _locale); String localizedString = format.format(args); In my message.properties file: pageXofY = Page {0} of {1} In the meantime I'll just list the page numbers as "Page X" and drop the "of Y" part.
