This might be a bug!

No it isn't.
I'm writing something about this in the new tutorial (but the example isn't online yet).
Try this and compare the default iText behaviour with the one you need:


The solution you are looking for is:
writer.setStrictImageSequence(true);

This is the complete example (change the image path to make it run):

package com.lowagie.examples.objects.images;

import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;

import com.lowagie.text.Document;
import com.lowagie.text.DocumentException;
import com.lowagie.text.Image;
import com.lowagie.text.Paragraph;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter;

/**
* Generates 2 documents: one that respects the order of Images added,
* another that has the default behaviour: only show the images if
* they fit on the page, if they don't fit, wait until the next page.
*/
public class ImageSequence {
/**
* Generates 2 documents: one that respects the order of Images added,
* another that has the default behaviour: only show the images if
* they fit on the page, if they don't fit, wait until the next page.
* @param args no arguments needed
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("ImageSequence");
// step 1: creation of a document-object
Document document = new Document();
try {
// step 2:
// we create a writer that listens to the document
// and directs a PDF-stream to a file
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("notInSequence.pdf"));
PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("inSequence.pdf"));
writer.setStrictImageSequence(true);
// step 3: we open the document
document.open();
// step 4:
document.add(new Paragraph("1st image"));
Image jpg = Image.getInstance("otsoe.jpg");
document.add(jpg);
document.add(new Paragraph("2nd image"));
Image gif= Image.getInstance("getacro.gif");
document.add(gif);
document.add(new Paragraph("3rd image"));
document.add(jpg);
document.add(new Paragraph("4th image"));
document.add(gif);
document.add(new Paragraph("5th image"));
document.add(jpg);
document.add(new Paragraph("6th image"));
document.add(gif);
document.add(new Paragraph("7th image"));
document.add(jpg);
}
catch(DocumentException de) {
System.err.println(de.getMessage());
}
catch(IOException ioe) {
System.err.println(ioe.getMessage());
}
// step 5: we close the document
document.close();
}
}
