That is always a challenge. Someone, be it you or the project manager, needs to make a decision on how they want the page formatted and just do it. My suggestion would be to consider a 4 digit possibility and center the number at a specific amount of space both before and after the "of" text. H

You were right, addCell invokes to_string on anything that I give to it as a parameter. I just didn't noticed because I've used a Chunk which just gave back it's value as a string and that seemed ok. However, I'm not invoking to_string directly, I'm just passing the newly created objects to addCe
