I do this on an EndPage event, seems to work fine
/**
* Inner class that adds headers and footers to page(s)
*/
private class EndPage extends PdfPageEventHelper
{
public void onEndPage(PdfWriter writer, Document document)
{
try
{
Rectangle page = document.getPageSize();
PdfPTable header = buildHeaderTable(document);
header.writeSelectedRows(0, -1, document.leftMargin(),
page.getHeight()
- (document.topMargin()) + header.getTotalHeight(),
writer.getDirectContent());
PdfPTable footer = buildFooterTable(document);
footer.writeSelectedRows(0, -1, document.leftMargin(), 38,
writer.getDirectContent());
}
catch (Exception e)
{
throw new ExceptionConverter(e);
}
}
}

Subject: [iText-questions] Any way to put a PdfPTable in a Header?
Hi,
I've got a table that I need repeated on every page. I realize that I
could probably do this on a onStartPage event, but that would end up
breaking some existing code. I was hoping to be able to simply create a
HeaderFooter object and include the table in there, but it seems that
HeaderFooters only accept Phrases or Chunks.
Is there anyway to put a Table in the header of the page, or is the
onStartPage really the only way possible?
Thanks,
Eric
