While waiting for a response, I looked into this a bit further. 

It seems that this issue may have been inadvertently caused with some of
the recent changes to the MultiColumnText class. (I say inadvertently
because there didn't seem to be any documentation to the contrary - if
this was an intentional feature, then I apologize ;-) )

I've attached a fix to the class, as well as a modification to the
MultiColumnTextSimple test case that demonstrates the issue. 

I hope this helps! Thanks!

Jerry

Subject: [iText-questions] [iText] MultiColumnText Balance


When I updated my version of iText to 154, my documents using
MultiColumnText started acting differently when they spanned multiple
pages. 

If I add a MultiColumnText object midway through a page, when that
object spans to a new page, it too starts midway through the page
(please see the attached PDF for an example). Is there a way to turn
this feature off? 

Thanks!
Jerry
