If you know the leading just set the height of the ColumnText to be a multiple of that.

However, I would like the paragraphs that contains more than 5 lines of text to be automatically truncated after 5 lines (i.e. only the 1st 5 lines of text in the paragraph should be rendered to the ColumnText). My Questions: 1. Is there an existing iText API which will do this? or 2. Would i have to extend the iText Paragragh class to do it? I know i would have to take into consideration Font, font size, # of chars per line , etc in order to calculate the available space. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php
