I have done a small example which shows what I'd like to achieve .. attached
you will find that example ..

Using the MyPageEvent I'm adding a table on each onStartPage() to the
document, this table represents the header of my document.
The main content of the document is another table which spans multiple
pages.
The problem I have is the following: when starting the second page my header
table gets added and then the main data table continues to be drawn but with
wrong coordinates .. (see attached PDF).

What can I do?

Kind regards,
Gerald.
