Hi all.

I'm trying to get the current Y coordinate while I"m inserting text  
and images into a ColumnText.  I've tried a bunch of things, none of  
which seemed  to work.  Here's a summary:

(1) PdfWriter.getVerticalPosition() and  
PdfWriter.getVerticalPosition(true)
        both always return the same value: 806.0

(2) PdfWriter.setPageEvent()
        I created an inner class that extends PdfPageEventHelper and overrides
        onParagraph() and onParagraphEnd().  Neither routine was ever  
called.  I also
        wrote a class that implements PdfPageEvent, just on the off chance that
        I misspelled one of the routine names or the method signatures were  
wrong.
        In this case, onEndPage(), onStartPage(), and onCloseDocument() were  
called,
        so I know the class is being registered properly, but I still didn't  
get any
        callbacks to onParagraph[End]().  Is there something I need to do to  
enable
        paragraph callbacks?  The code looks something like this:

        public class Handler extends PdfPageEvent {
             ...
             public void onParagraph (PdfWriter writer, Document  
document,  float position) {
                   System.out.println ("onParagraph");
             }
             ...
         }
         ...
         Document document = new Document();
         PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance (document,  
outputStream);
         document.open();
         writer.setPageEvent (new Handler());
         ...


Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Greg
