I've attached the two PDFs that the below code generated. So you can see what I am talking about.
Note: using PdfPTable and PdfPCell doesn't fix the problem. -Ryan ----------------------------------- Ari, I did some investigation; this isn't a problem for iText v. 1.02b and earlier, it only affects v1.1 and later. I wrote the following test code to prove your bug to myself, I ran it with both 1.02b and 1.1: import java.io.BufferedOutputStream; import java.io.FileOutputStream; import java.io.OutputStream; import com.lowagie.text.Cell; import com.lowagie.text.Chunk; import com.lowagie.text.Document; import com.lowagie.text.DocumentException; import com.lowagie.text.Image; import com.lowagie.text.Table; import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter; public class ITextCellTester{ public static void main(String[] args)throws Exception { ITextCellTester app = new ITextCellTester(); app.testPDF(); } private void testPDF()throws Exception{ try { OutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("iTextTest.pdf")); Document doc = new Document(); PdfWriter.getInstance(doc, out); doc.open(); Cell cell = null; Table table = new Table(2); //row 1 table.addCell("1 (Text without image)"); table.addCell("Sample Text"); //row 2 Image jpg = Image.getInstance("test.jpg"); table.addCell("2 (Image without Text"); cell = new Cell(jpg); table.addCell(cell); //row 3 Image jpg2 = Image.getInstance("test.jpg"); table.addCell("3 (Image and Text same cell)"); cell = new Cell(); Chunk chunk = new Chunk("Sample Text"); cell.add(chunk); cell.add(jpg2); table.addCell(cell); doc.add(table); doc.close(); out.close(); //Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime(); //rt.exec(new String[]{"C:/Program Files/Adobe/Acrobat 5.0/Reader/AcroRd32.exe", "C:/workspace/ITextTester/myPDF.pdf"}); } catch (DocumentException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } } } using 1.02b- the 3rd row features the text with the image below it as expected; using 1.1+ the image and the text float over each other. Does anyone have an idea what would be the cause of this problem??
