There is a method in PdfWriter that returns current verticalPosition,
However, there is no setter defined. One option is to patch it to set the
position(simply increment the currentHeight value in document). Alternative
to patch would be to somehow put dummy empty space before your table. For
example, you might set table.setSpacingBefore(requestedSpace) or
spacingAfter or add a dummy table with one cell of fixedHeight(requested
spacing) and add that table to document using document.add(). I guess there
are a couple ways you can achieve this, see which one fits the best.
