Okay so here's my problem.
I have a ColumnText object that I'm adding text to. I'm using the simulate
function to check if the text fits if it does I add it, If not I scale it
down and try adding it again.
//AddTextColumn is my helper function that abstracts the logic where iText
is used to place the text.
for (float xfontSize = currLabelSetting.FontSize.Value; xfontSize >=
currLabelSetting.FontSizeMin.Value; xfontSize -= .25f)
{
var seriesPhrase = new Phrase(new Chunk("Test Test Test Test Test", new
Font(GetBaseFont(currLabelSetting.Font.Value), xfontSize)));
if (!AddTextColumn(writer, seriesPhrase, Element.ALIGN_LEFT, xfontSize, 0f,
currLabelSetting.TechDataPrimaryLeft,
currLabelSetting.TechDataPrimaryRight))
break;
}
The dimensions of the box are always: left limit (513,237,513,177) right
limit (824,237,824,177)
My Leading is set to the xfontSize I try to add. The multiplied leading is
set to 0f.
The outcome is for 60pt font it places perfectly inside the box on one line.
If I try to add a longer string of text it places it on two lines this is
what I want however the text is moved up.
I'm thinking this has to do with leading but why would leading be applied
to the top line?
Please see screen shots here:
