(Someone that reads the javadocs, what a novelty.)
That's old news. It's the default behavior but there's setSplitRows() and
even setSpliLate() to choose when to split.

Subject: [iText-questions] PdfPTable Cells bigger than a page


> The PdfPTable class javadocs states "...if a row is bigger than the page
it is dropped silently to

> A few comments on this:
>
> Since PdfPTable doesn't support rowspans, I am using inner tables to
accomplish the same layout.
> Some inner tables may return results larger than will fit on one page.
They are being dropped

more appropriate to throw an

this application for a

being avoided by dropping
