Re: [iText-questions] why PdfPTable than Tbale?

[Carlos Amengual]

But Table has the useful setTableFitsPage method, while PdfPTable has 
not. I had to roll back my use of PdfPTable in my software, because it 
is unclear how can I control page breaks with PdfPTable. This came from 
my need to render two paragraphs in the same page.

Can anyone explain why PdfPTable is better than Table?
   

Table was written to make tables in PDF, HTML and RTF.
You know Tables are a problem in simple HTML (without CSS features).
Depending on the browser, HTML Tables get printed in very odd ways.
The same happens with class Table. With Table you have to accept
the features/bugs as they are.
PdfPTable was written to compose table in PDF only (no HTML, no RTF).
You get a lot more control over the layout of the table.
If the result with PdfPTable isn't what you expected, it's probably
a bug in your own code ;-)
