Can you try this with a different font? Do you get the same result? I see that you create a Phrase without specifying a leading (leading = the space between the lines). In this case, the default leading depends on the font size. What is shown in your result looks like a text that is written using a leading = 0. That's strange.
Also: what is 9? Is it a font size? In that case, you need more than 9 * numberOfLines because the font size is usually LESS than the height you need for each line. There are some other oddities in your text. For instance: you are adding this text to an existing PDF making the assumption that it's an A4 page? What will happen if the existing PDF has a different size? What will happen when the PDF has pages of size A4, but a page origin that is different from (0 , 0)? These are just some initial remarks. It would take too much time to deal with all possible issues. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
