Ok I managed to do this with the following code:
//Header
Phrase phrase = new Phrase (-16);
phrase.add(table);
HeaderFooter header = new HeaderFooter(phrase, false);
header.setBorder(0);
header.setAlignment(Paragraph.ALIGN_CENTER);
document.setHeader(header);
//Footer
HeaderFooter footer = new HeaderFooter(new Phrase("Page ",new
Font(Font.HELVETICA, 8, Font.NORMAL)), new Phrase("",new
Font(Font.HELVETICA, 8, Font.NORMAL)));
footer.setBorder(0);
footer.setAlignment(Paragraph.ALIGN_CENTER);
document.setFooter(footer);
document.open();
Getting page x of y, is going to be a fun ride, can someone make some
suggestions please? Thanks.
