}
And:
try {
Document document = new Document();
ReportBuilderFactory rb = new ReportBuilderFactory();
PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document,
new
FileOutputStream("0.pdf"));
writer.setViewerPreferences(PdfWriter.PageLayoutTwoColumnLeft);
writer.setPageEvent(rb);
document.setMargins(36, 36, 100, 72);
document.open();
rb.buildPdfDocumentFCELC(document);
document.close();
} catch(DocumentException de) {
de.printStackTrace();
System.err.println("document: " + de.getMessage());
} catch(Exception e) {
System.err.println(e.toString());
}
The header has three rows. The header is overlapped with the contents.
How to fix this problem.
