Do you have tab position for each row.
abc............123
wxyz..........456
The tab position of second word in second line is less than the first.
You want to implement by setting tab stops for every row.
Or can I assume that it is a typo and you need something like.
abc............123
wxyz...........456
I can probably help you if the second type is what you are looking for.
Excuse me, for the first one.

Thanks for your help. I was able to use the PdfContentByte to center my
headers. I haven't tried NO_BORDER yet but I do have a question about the
dots. In my example:
abc............123
wxyz..........456
I thought of making it a PdfPTable, adding a cell for which I set noWrap to
true. I'm assuming this means if the text in the row is too big for the
row, don't create a new line in the cell, just truncate the text. That is
what I want. I tried this (see code sample below) with no success. I guess
noWrap means something else. Is it just not possible to do what I want?

You'll need to do it in a PdfContentByte.
BaseFont.getWidthPoint()
gives the char widths and after that it's a matter of arithmetic.

Set the border width to 0 or to NO_BORDER.

Use a page event instead of HeaderFooter.
You have some examples in the tutorial and in
www.geocities.com/itextpdf.
