Hi
In your calculations you do not take the documents default margins into
account. That's the issue.
Kind Regards

Hi,
Here is a standalone class using V5.0.1 which shows the problem. Shows

Hi,
First of all, you mention you use iText 1.4.5. This version is almost
5 years old (september 2006), and no free support is provided on this
list to such an old version. The codebase underwent a major
refactoring since then, a huge amount of funcitonnalities were added,
some were removed. You might as well be on your own here...
I am creating a pdf containing a table. I need to size the pdf
such that:
- the pdf uses a single page only, regardless of the height of
the table
- no extraneous white space appears at the bottom
I want the pdf to contain the table, the whole table, and nothing
but the table, on *a single page*. (I'm actually creating an image
of the resulting pdf, but that's likely irrelevant in this context.)
It usually works. However, when there is *line-wrapping* of wide
text in a cell(s), then then it sometimes succeeds, and sometimes
fails. It seems to fail after the amount of wrapping exceeds some
unknown amount. It fails in the sense that the pdf is spread over
2 pages, not 1.
What do you mean by "amount of wrapping"?
The pertinent sections of my Shakespearean-yet-oh-so-faulty code
look like this:
This is not a standalone running piece of code. Should anyone be eager
to help you with such an old release, he or she wouldn't really be
able, since there is no way to quicly reproduce the problem you noticed.
[...]
Do you know where I'm going wrong? I've whacked away at it in the
obvious ways, but the problem persists..
Any help appreciated,
I don't know if this class already existed in version 1.4.5, but you
could give a try using ColumnText.
Cheers,
alexis
