This should be really simple: I have a PdfPTable that crosses a page boundary.
I would like to tell iText to force a page break before the PdfPTable if it
would split the table. According to section 6.1.5 of iText in Action, I should
be able to do this with table.setSplitLate(true). But whether I set it true or
false, the result is the same: the table splits at a page boundary.
In this case, the data is just a series of text blocks:
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(2);
table.setSplitLate(false);
table.getDefaultCell().setBorder(0);
table.setSplitRows(false);
int[] width = { 50, 50 };
table.getDefaultCell().setBorder(0);
table.setWidths(width);
table.setWidthPercentage(100);
PdfPCell space1 = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(" "));
space1.setBorder(0);
space1.setColspan(2);
table.addCell(space1);
PdfPCell space2 = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(" "));
space2.setBorder(0);
space2.setColspan(2);
table.addCell(space2);
PdfPCell tableCell1 = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(" "));
tableCell1.setBorder(0);
table.addCell(tableCell1);
PdfPCell tableCell2 = ReportUtil.getFormattedCell("Respectfully
submitted,", 12, false, 0);
table.addCell(tableCell2);
PdfPCell tableCell3 = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(" "));
tableCell3.setColspan(2);
tableCell3.setBorder(0);
table.addCell(tableCell3);
PdfPCell tableCell6 = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(" "));
tableCell6.setBorder(0);
table.addCell(tableCell6);
PdfPCell tableCell7 =
ReportUtil.getFormattedCell("______________________________", 11, true, 0);
table.addCell(tableCell7);
PdfPCell tableCell8 = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(" "));
tableCell8.setBorder(0);
table.addCell(tableCell8);
// adding the signature
appUser.log(3, this, method, "adding signature ");
String supName = "";
PSIReportSectionVO signVO = new PSIReportSectionVO();
signVO = processor.loadSupervisorSignature(theForm.getReferralId());
if (signVO != null && signVO.getSupSigFlg() != null &&
signVO.getSupSigFlg().equalsIgnoreCase("N")
&& signVO.getSupSigName() != null &&
!signVO.getSupSigName().trim().equalsIgnoreCase(""))
supName = signVO.getSupSigName().trim();
else
supName = myVO.getSuprName();
PdfPCell tableCell9 = ReportUtil.getMergedDataPdfPCell("",
myVO.getInvstName(), 1, 11, 0);
table.addCell(tableCell9);
PdfPCell tableCell10 = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(" "));
tableCell10.setBorder(0);
table.addCell(tableCell10);
PdfPCell tableCell11 = ReportUtil.getFormattedCell("Presentence
Investigator", 12, false, 0);
table.addCell(tableCell11);
PdfPCell tableCell12 = ReportUtil.getFormattedCell("Approved:
______________________________", 11, true, 0);
tableCell12.setBorder(0);
table.addCell(tableCell12);
PdfPCell tableCell13 = ReportUtil.getMergedDataPdfPCell("",
(myVO.getAgcyDesc() != null ? (myVO.getAgcyDesc()) : ""), 1, 11, 0);
table.addCell(tableCell13);
PdfPCell tableCell14 = ReportUtil.getMergedDataPdfPCell("",
((supName != null &&
!supName.trim().equalsIgnoreCase("")) ?
(supName.trim() + ",
Section Supervisor") : " Section Supervisor"),
1, 11, 0);
tableCell14.setBorder(0);
table.addCell(tableCell14);
