iText can't control the way things are converted, it's the responsability of 
the converter to answer your question.

Subject: [iText-questions] How to get the image in line with text



I'm creating a PDF whose lines may have text and images.  I'm converting the
PDF to a Word doc, and it's mandatory that a user be able to select a whole
line all at once (text and images), copy and paste it.  When I open the
created Word doc, the image has a layout of "behind text".  If I right
click, change the layout to "in line with text" and move the image next to
the text, then I can select, copy and paste both the text and images at
once.  The problem is, I need to be able to have the converted Word doc
created with the "in line with text" layout (the end user is not going to be
changing the layout by hand).

Is there something to set during PDF creation that will enable this?  BTW,
I'm using Word 2007, but I have the same problem in Word 2003.  Also, I
thought that by default images would be in line with text.

Here's a code snippet:
                Document document = new Document(PageSize.LETTER);
                try {
                        PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, 
new
FileOutputStream("pdfs/itext.pdf"));
                        writer.setStrictImageSequence(true);
                        document.open();
                        Paragraph p = new Paragraph(20);
                        p.add(new Chunk("Date: "));
                        Image img = Image.getInstance("images/date.jpg");
                        img.scalePercent(20);
                    p.add(new Chunk(img, -1.00f, -2.00f));
                        document.add(p);
                }
                catch (Exception de) {
                        de.printStackTrace();
                }
