See the attached GIF to see what I want to achieve (the first cell with the traffic light).
Then you shouldn't put the image and the text into separate Paragraph objects. You should put both inside a Phrase. Use the offset passed to the Chunk constructor (along with the image) to position the image (in my example, it isn't exactly in the middle, you have to take the leading of the text into account too). br, Bruno
