Subject: Re: [iText-questions] table w/ images formatting problem
Could you tell me what I need to change/which method does the sizing in
the table class so I can try to change it to work? I will need to do

row spanning, so I either need to change Table or use nested PdfPTable
objects, correct?
Yes.
Best Regards,
Paulo Soares
Thanks for your help with the images.
