Hello Paulo, Thanks for the suggestion. Now, the line is exactly 1 inch. But, my following doubt was how is it less in the shrink to fit mode. What am I required to do, if I wanted the line to be 1 inch exactly in all modes. My page size was 8.5in * 11inch. I thought the default page created by iText is also of the same size.

If it still doesn't work complain to the printer manufacturer.
