I copied the section logic out of the itext api html docs and all pdf shows is the chapters, no sections.
doc = new Document(PageSize.A4, 50, 50, 50, 50); PdfWriter.getInstance(doc, new FileOutputStream("c:/try2.pdf")); Paragraph phrase = new Paragraph("Hello World"); HeaderFooter hd = new HeaderFooter(phrase, false); doc.setHeader(hd); HeaderFooter foot = new HeaderFooter(new Paragraph("Created by usacoder"), true); doc.setFooter(foot); doc.open(); doc.add(new Paragraph("new paragraph"); Paragraph title2 = new Paragraph("This is Chapter 2", FontFactory.getFont(FontFactory.HELVETICA, 18, Font.BOLDITALIC, new Color(0, 0, 255))); Chapter chapter2 = new Chapter(title2, 2); doc.add(chapter2); Paragraph someText = new Paragraph("This is some text"); chapter2.add(someText); Paragraph title21 = new Paragraph("This is Section 1 in Chapter 2", FontFactory.getFont(FontFactory.HELVETICA, 16, Font.BOLD, new Color(255, 0, 0))); Section section1 = chapter2.addSection(title21); Paragraph someSectionText = new Paragraph("This is some silly paragraph in a chapter and/or section. It contains some text to test the functionality of Chapters and Section."); section1.add(someSectionText); Paragraph title211 = new Paragraph("This is SubSection 1 in Section 1 in Chapter 2", FontFactory.getFont(FontFactory.HELVETICA, 14, Font.BOLD, new Color(255, 0, 0))); Section section11 = section1.addSection(40, title211, 2); section11.add(someSectionText); doc.newPage(); doc.close(); ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
