I think I've traced the (presumed) bug to this method in PdfDocument:
https://itext.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/itext/trunk/itext/src/main/jav
a/com/itextpdf/text/pdf/PdfDocument.java
boolean fitsPage(final PdfPTable table, final float margin) {
if (!table.isLockedWidth()) {
float totalWidth = (indentRight() - indentLeft()) *
table.getWidthPercentage() / 100;
table.setTotalWidth(totalWidth);
}
// ensuring that a new line has been started.
ensureNewLine();
return table.getTotalHeight() + (currentHeight > 0 ?
table.spacingBefore() : 0f) <= indentTop() - currentHeight -
indentBottom() - margin;
}
If the table has header rows that are set skipFirstHeader, then
getTotalHeight() needs to take that into account:
Maybe something like:
Float spaceNeeded = table.isSkipFirstHeader() ? table.getTotalHeight() -
table.getHeaderHeight() ? table.getTotalHeight();
Return spaceNeeded + (currentHeight > 0 ? table.spacingBefore() : 0f) <=
indentTop() - currentHeight - indentBottom() - margin;
The fitsPage method is only called if getKeepTogether() is true, so that
should do it
Thanks,
Jason

Subject: [iText-questions] table forced to next page
I have a table with 2 header rows and 4 body rows....all forced to be 1"
tall
The width is locked, so the total height of the table is 6".....I get
that.
I set the following options on the table:
setHeaderRows(2)
setSkipFirstHeader(true)
setKeepTogether(true)
my document has 5" of vertical space remaining, but when I add the table
using document.add(table), the table is forced to the next page. I'm
assuming that's because my 6" table won't fit in my 5" remaining space.
The issue is the header rows shouldn't be included in this math, because
they are skipped. Really, I have a 4" table that *can* fit in the
remaining 5" space....it's the two header rows that force the page break
and those rows aren't even printing, so it's very obvious to the eye
there's enough room.
Is this something that can/should/will be "fixed/changed"? If not, how
can I go about patching and resubmitting?
Thanks for any help/direction....
