Hi,
I believe what is happening is...
create new document - does so with an empty paragraph.
addParagraph - appends after the empty.
So you can do as above.
Or I have...
TextDocument reportDoc = TextDocument.newTextDocument();
Paragraph firstEmpty = reportDoc.getParagraphByIndex(0, false);
firstEmpty.remove();
Paragraph header = Paragraph.newParagraph(reportDoc);
And all seems well.
Or better? Is simply to just use the firstEmpty, fill it and add others
following it.
TextDocument reportDoc = TextDocument.newTextDocument();
Paragraph firstPara = reportDoc.getParagraphByIndex(0, false);
firstPara.appendTextContent(lead);
Paragraph nextPara = Paragraph.newParagraph(reportDoc);
The heading issue I will check out later.
