I need to create a PdfPTable that spans the bottom half of continuous
pages. The top half of each page will contain different fields that
are easily filled using a stamper. The table will contain cells with
multi-line text, so I can't predict the height of each row. Before I
start coding this beast, is this the correct approach?
(1) Fill fields on top half of the page using the stamper.
(2) Set table width.
(3) Add a row.
(4) Check table height and if the table fits the designated area,
repeat #3.
(5) If the table doesn't fit, writeSelectedRows (except for the
last row added).
(6) Go to next page.
(7) Go to step #1.
Is there a better way? I'm hoping so.
Where do you want the remaining part of the table to start on the next page?
I think you should try adding the table to a ColumnText object and use that
object to do all the checking (if the column with the table fits the
page or not
etc...).
