Subject: [iText-questions] How to force a table to fill an entire page?


> Hi,
>
> I'm struggling with the following problem.  I am using iText to generate a
> page that has 3 tables on it - a top (header) table, a bottom (footer)
table
> and a body table.  (Header and footer tables are not actual headers and
> footers - they just sit at the top and bottom of the page).  Now my
problem
> is that I have to ensure that the top table is always at the topmost part
of
> the page, and that the footer table is always at the bottom most part of
the
> page.  Finally, the middle table must be able to expand to fill all the
> remaining space on the page between the top and bottom tables.
>
> Unfortunately, none of these tables are fixed sizes, so they fluctuate
based
> on content.
>
> How can I "auto-expand" the middle table to pick up any additional slack
on
> the page and make sure that it fills all the empty space between the top
and
> bottom tables?  How can I make sure that the bottom table is always at the
> lowest possible part of the page?
>
> I am using PdfPTables.  I originally thought I could use
PdfPTable.getSize()
> and calculate any extra space necessary in the middle table, however, the
> PdfPTable.getSize() only seems to return a size once it has already been
> added to the document.
>
> Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!

> Thanks,
