Hi,

Is there a chance to figure out the y-coordinate of the bottom of a
PdfPTable after adding it to a document?

I know that PdfPTable's writeSelectedRows()-function returns the yPos of the
bottom of the table, but using this function means worrying about the
page-breaks by myself (how do I handle that?).

Another possibility is to use Table instead of PdfPTable (I prefer the
latter) and use the writer's getTableBottom()-function. I tried this and the
function returned '-61' (the table finished at about 2/3 of the page) and I
couldn't figure out what that number meant.

Why do I have to know that? I've got the following situation:
I have two tables. The first contains one to a few hundred rows with data.
The second table should be at the bottom of the last page containing
additional information. If the first table ends at the bottom of a page and
there's no more space for the second table, the latter should start at the
top of the next page (instead of sitting at the bottom).
Maybe anyone has a better idea than calculating whether there's enough space
to put the second table on the last page or there's a need for another page
containing the second table.

Thanks a lot,
Mitter Florian
