We're already doing this successfully by using the PdfContentByte directly.
( http://www.lowagie.com/iText/tutorial/ch10.html ) We've got full control
of exact layout that we want.

Subject: [iText-questions] Layers?


> iText is great. I've like how it allows me to generate a report in PDF 
> format from a Java application. Very convenient. However, I'm now 
> running into a small dilemma. Management wants more precise control 
> over placement if items on the page, rather than just depending on the 
> luck of text flow or table flow.
> 
> Is there currently or planned support for this type of precise 
> placement of items? This would be comparable to layers in HTML (using 
> the <div> tag). If not, I have been experimenting with writing my own 
> Java class that will accomplish this using a clipping path.
