You are experiencing the wonders of 'font propagation',
it's a legacy in iText. I adapted your code sample to
show the two possibilities:
document.open();
Paragraph p1 = new Paragraph();
Paragraph p2 = new Paragraph("Test1 ", FontFactory.getFont
(FontFactory.COURIER,20,Font.ITALIC,new Color(255, 0, 0)));
Paragraph p3 = new Paragraph(54);
Phrase phrase1 = new Phrase("Test",FontFactory.getFont
(FontFactory.COURIER,10,Font.NORMAL,new Color(255, 0, 0)));
Phrase phrase2 = new Phrase("Test2");
Phrase phrase3 = new Phrase("Test",FontFactory.getFont
(FontFactory.COURIER,40,Font.BOLD,new Color(255, 0, 0)));
p1.add(phrase1);
p2.add(phrase2);
p3.add(phrase3);
p3.add(phrase1);
document.add(p1);
document.add(p2);
document.add(p3);
document.add(p1);
p2 is created using a String X and a Font Y.
Whenever a Phrase is added, the Font Y is propagated
to this Phrase.
p3 is created defining a leading.
No font is propagated. Each Phrase keeps its own font.
