That is excatly what I do, but header and text overlaps. The code is below:
public class Test extends PdfPageEventHelper {
Document document = null;
PdfWriter writer = null;
void openDocument() throws DocumentException, IOException {
document = new Document(PageSize.A4.rotate());
writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream(
"/iText/out.pdf"));
writer.setPageEvent(this);
document.open();
}
void closeDocument() { document.close(); }
void addStatementHeader() throws DocumentException, IOException {
PdfPTable header = new PdfPTable(1);
header.setTotalWidth(770);
header.setLockedWidth(true);
header.setHorizontalAlignment(Element.ALIGN_CENTER);
header.addCell(new PdfPCell(new Phrase("ROW 1")));
header.addCell(new PdfPCell(new Phrase("ROW 2")));
PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContent();
header.writeSelectedRows(0, -1, 36, 559, cb);
}
public void onEndPage(PdfWriter writer, Document document) {
try {
addStatementHeader();
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception: " + e.getMessage());
return;
}
}
public void addContents() throws DocumentException {
for (int i=0; i < 50; i++) {
document.add(new Paragraph(String.valueOf(i) + " Hello"
));
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Test app = new Test();
try {
app.openDocument();
app.addContents();
app.closeDocument();
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception " + e.getMessage());
}
}
}

The counterpart of showTextAligned() for tables is writeSelectedRows().
