You could use pdfptableevent. In my own iText based library I have this:
http://www.vectorprint.nl/userContent/reporttarget/site/apidocs/com/vectorprint/report/itext/style/ZebraStripes.html https://java.net/projects/vectorprintreport/sources/subversion/content/trunk/src/main/java/com/vectorprint/report/itext/style/ZebraStripes.java?rev=596 It has a method you can override, for example: protected void paintRow(int row, Rectangle rect, PdfContentByte[] canvases, boolean last, boolean first) { if (last) { // set left, bottom, right border } else if (first) { // set left, top, right border } else { // set left, right border } canvases[PdfPTable.BACKGROUNDCANVAS].rectangle(rect); } suc6 On 27-07-14 11:13, Nishant Bulchandani wrote: > Hi iText Users, > > I want to render tables which have a border outside them , but none inside. > > I know I can use PDFPCell.setBorder to disable borders of all cells > inside table , but I want a border outside the whole table as well.
