I have a Paragraph that needs to be Left Aligned and vertically Middle
Aligned in a ColumnText. No matter how I set the alignment, the paragraph is
aligned at the top of the ColumnText.
I have tried setting the ColumnText alignment to ElementConst.ALIGN_MIDDLE
and the Paragraph alignment to ElementConst.ALIGN_LEFT
I have tried setting the Paragraph alignment to ElementConst.ALIGN_MIDDLE
Here is some example code:
ContentByte cb;
ColumnText column;
Paragraph myParagraph;
Chunk ck;
// Writer is defined in code above this segment
cb = Writer.getDirectContent();
column = new ColumnText(cb);
column.setSimpleColumn(0.0, 0.0, 100.0, 500.0);
column.setAlignment(Element.ALIGN_MIDDLE);
myParagraph = new Paragraph(19.0);
myParagraph.setAlignment(Element.ALIGN_LEFT);
ck = new Chunk("This is some text.");
myParagraph.add(ck);
myParagraph.add(Chunk.NEWLINE);
myParagraph.add(new Chunk("This is an extra line."));
myParagraph.add(Chunk.NEWLINE);
ck = new Chunk("This is some more text ");
myParagraph.add(ck);
ck = new Chunk("blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah ");
myParagraph.add(ck);
ck = new Chunk("blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah.");
myParagraph.add(ck);
column.addText(myParagraph);
column.go();
I want it to look similar to this:
*********************************************************************
*
*
*
*
*
*This is some text.
*This is an extra line.
*This is some more text blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
*blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
*blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
*
*
*
*
*
