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?
