Subject: [iText-questions] Question regarding image rendering using
ColumnText
> Hi,
>
> I have been trying to create a PDF document using the
> iText API. I am encountering the following problem -->
>
> 1. I am using ColumnText to split the contents into
> two columns per page (I am using the method -->
> ct.go(), to write, where ct is the columntext object).
> 2. The content is a mix of text and image.
> 3. The problem I have is when the writer writes the
> image as the first item on a page , it does not
> position the image by taking its height into account.
> Hence, the image sometimes ends up interfering with
> the headers in the page.
>
> Is there any way I can control the position of the
> image, when it is the first item to be written to a
> page?
>
> Thanks!
