Bruno: thanks for your response. I'm still not quite clear on this (and yes I've read every page of the tutorial and FAQ and some of the Java docs). When you say "yes and no", does that mean that no, they can't be mixed on a page unless I'm using PageEvents to place a chunk?
That was what I meant (but you aren't limited to the Chunk object).
I think there is an example with Paragraphs in Paulo's examples bundle.I want to have fine control over where a paragraph begins but I don't want to have to place the paragraph line by line using ContentByte stuff.
Or you can look at:
http://www.lowagie.com/iText/examples/Chap1108.java
As you can see, I create Outlines for every paragraph:
class PageOutline extends PdfPageEventHelper {
// the paragraph number
private int n = 0;
// we override only the onParagraph method
public void onParagraph(PdfWriter writer, Document document, float position) {
n++;
PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContent();
PdfDestination destination = new PdfDestination(PdfDestination.FITH, position);
PdfOutline outline = new PdfOutline(cb.getRootOutline(), destination, "paragraph " + n);
cb.addOutline(outline);
}
}
Instead of using the position-parameter to create a PdfDestination that points o
the start of every new Paragraph that is added. You could use this position to draw
a line on the PdfContentByte...
