[iText-questions] Changing the size of a PDFTemplate

[William S. Hayes]

I am trying to modify the src of iText HeaderFooter to support "page X or Y" by default.  I have it working for both the PDF and RTF engine.  However inorder to do it with a PDF you have to use a PDFTemplate to back patch the total pages(Y).  However you do not know the value, hence the size of the text to insert, whether it is 10 or 100, or 1000, or 100000.    So my question is, Is there anyway to change the width of a PDFTemplate after it has been added to each HeaderFooter object of every page, once you have the value?   I know a better solution is to use the PageEvent model, however I have to support both RTF and PDF.   thanks scott
