You could possibly override the newPage method to take into account your
special case, and not actually create the page if certain criteria are not met.
Haven't fiddled much with newPage though.

Subject: [iText-questions] problem with adding content to the last page
Hi,
I am running into a strange blocker issue with a very simple requirement and
would greatly appreciate any help from the community.
I need to add various elements (text, images, SVGs, etc ...) using absolute
positioning to the LAST PAGE of the pdf document that I am generating. As I am
adding the regular (free-flowing) content to the document, iText is creating
new pages automatically for me. As soon I am done with the free-floating
content, I find myself on the last page and I am able to add all the special
(absolute-positioning) elements that I need to add to the last page.
It all works as described except for a very special case when the free-floating
content fits PERFECTLY onto the last page. As far as I could understand the
code, in this case iText is immediately creating the new page in anticipation
of me adding more free-floating content (But there is none left). Instead my
absolute-positioning content is now drawn on the extra blank page at the end of
the document.
Is there any workaround for this?
Thanks a lot in advance for any hints/pointers
Tony.
