Thanks Pablo, BTW your library is great!
I've tried simulation with go(true) before, doing something like this:
ct.setSimpleColumn(right[0], 25, left[0], 800, leading, Element.ALIGN_LEFT);
(...)
While (rs.next()) {
(...)
ct.addText(p);
if (go(true) == ct.NO_MORE_COLUMN)
{
column++;
if (column > n_columns - 1) {
document.newPage();
column = 0;
}
ct.setSimpleColumn(right[column], 25, left[column], 800, leading,
Element.ALIGN_LEFT);
}
ct.addText(p);
ct.go()
But, going back to the PDF generated, by some reason, a blank paragraph or
something similar is generated betwen each paragraph added. Should I create
a new instance of ct using ct.simpleColumn every time I run go(true), and I
will need write in the same paragraph?
Regards,
Guillermo
