Add a table to page 4 with doc.add(...) which may span multiple pages
(but shouldn't print over the coupon)
Normally, if you change the margins back to 36,36,36,36 BEFORE adding
the table, these new margins should only be active on page 5.
However: your questions tell me that probably isn't the case. If not,
you've found a bug.
The issue, if I remember correctly, is that once you change those
margins before you add the table, calls to doc.bottom() will return 36
even though the table will stop at 250 and move to the next page.
In other words, doc.bottom(..) will return the unit set by the most
recent setMargins(...), not the actual bottom of the document
Example on the way....

1) Create a document with default (36 point) margins
OK.
2) Add 3 pages of content
OK
3) Change the margins to 36,36,36,250 (the bottom of page 4 has a
payment coupon)
OK, you'll use the lower 250 pt to add the coupon at an absolute
position.
4) Page break
OK, the 250pt bottom margin should be active because of the newPage().
