Paulo,
Thanks for your response.
I was attempting to use the PdfContentByte to directly write data to a pdf.
That was where I was referring to setColorFill() (it's part of the
.text.pdf*); Is there a corresponding method that I can use with
PdfContentByte that would allow me to have the black background on white
text in a specific location on the PdfDocument? (ie: something like setting
the background Chunk color)
If I were to use the Chunk class, is there a way for a "textual field" to
be inserted at a specific location?
Thanks in advance.
Ken

You can set the background Chunk color (and the text color, of course).
