Sorry I just realised that you probably meant INCREASE the size of the
mediabox, rather than decrease it. I was thinking decrease because
I've been focussed on adding new content to the page.

Another alternative is mentioned by Leo on this thread:
<http://www.nabble.com/How-to-Shrink-Content-and-Add-Margins-to11547554.html#a11555129>

I might try his suggestion of appending a cm entry to the content stream.
So, do I add this cm entry once before all of my content or multiple
times before every piece of content on the page? Then, do i add
another cm and add text using normal itext functions or will itext
take care of the cm for the newly added text?

Cheers,

Billy
