I'm looking for an easy way to place a character (e.g. the hash '#') at the beginning of each line. The scenario is, that under 'normal' conditions a text is written without the hash at the beginning and under several conditions the text must contain the hash at the beginning of each line.
The text under 'normal' conditions would for example look like this: This is the first line of the paragraph and thats the text which broke and here the third line. To achieve this I would do something like: String s = “This is the first line of the paragraph and thats the text which broke and here the third line.”; Paragraph para = new Paragraph(s, font); para.setFirstLineIndent(-46); para.setIndentationLeft(55); para.setIndentationRight(90); document.add(para); When writing under 'special condition', the same text should look as follows: # This is the first line of the paragraph # and thats the text which broke and # here the third line. So the question is, if there is an easy way to achieve this behavior?
