Hi guys,
First, thanks for all the support you provide for this library... you have
provided a lot of material that is very helpful.
I am building a print layout engine and my immediate need is to enable
background images in PdfPCells. I understand that the way to do this is using
cell events
Is this something you plan to do often or just once?
Is there a reason you can't use Adobe Acrobat and just File->Save As
(or even Advanced->PDF Optimizer?)

Hi folks,
my task is to highlight/mark text passages in pdf files. The

In all fairness I do not think we should blame creators of this library for

If you created the original PDF, then you should know why,
because that's the way you've defined it. If you didn't
create the original PDF, ask the person who did.

I found a workaround to fix it by using the padding top on a cell. But
padding top value would depend on the biggest font size in the first line.
Does anyone know the way to get the biggest font size in the first line?
