What Paulo always says: "Post a small working example with the problem."
I tried the general approach you described and it works for me: import java.io.FileOutputStream; import com.lowagie.text.Phrase; import com.lowagie.text.Document; import com.lowagie.text.Paragraph; import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter; public class ParagraphAlignmentTest { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { int code = 0; Document doc = new Document(); PdfWriter.getInstance(doc, new FileOutputStream("ParagraphAlignmentTest.pdf")); doc.open(); Paragraph para = new Paragraph(); para.setAlignment(Paragraph.ALIGN_CENTER); para.add(new Phrase("abc\n")); para.add(new Phrase("123\n")); para.add(new Phrase("xyz\n")); para.add(new Phrase("we the people of so and so\n")); para.add(new Phrase("in order to form a more perfect union\n")); para.add(new Phrase("hereby do something drastic and spastic and elastic and bombastic\n")); para.add(new Phrase("woo hoo")); doc.add(para); doc.close(); System.exit(code); }//end main }//end class ParagraphAlignmentTest --- David Thielen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: David Thielen > To: itext > Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2002 2:52 PM > Subject: Element.ALIGN_CENTER doesn't work > > > I set: > pdfPara = new Paragraph(); > pdfPara.setAlignment( Element.ALIGN_CENTER ); > pdfPara.add( new Phrase( elem.getText(), > new Font( font, > ((float)charState.getFontSize()) / > 2.0f, > style ))); > pdfPara.add( new Phrase( elem.getText(), > new Font( font, > ((float)charState.getFontSize()) / > 2.0f, > style ))); > document.add( pdfPara ); > > and then added a bunch of phrases to a paragraph - > and it aligned left all of the para. > > Any ideas? > > thanks - dave __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
