OK, piece of cake, see attachment.

Oh, you want the image to be in the middle vertically
and still have some text below. That's more difficult.
Can't you play with the leading?
For instance: define a fixed width for the cell,
based on the height of the image. Then add the image
at the correct position using the leading, then add
some text with a certain leading.

Setting the border width to 0 doesn't mean you remove
the borders. As is explained in the PDF Reference AND
in 'iText in Action', a width of 0 means you want to
draw the thinnest line possible (depending on the device).
If you want to remove the border: use setBorder(NO_BORDER);

This is normal behavior.
You are m
ixing 'text mode' with 'composite mode'.
Ah, tomorrow I will be a happy man, because then I will
be able to say: it's all documented in the book 'iText
in Action'. The eBook version is available here:

If I have some more time, I'll adapt my example
so that it matches your requirements.
