The currentHeight wouldn't help you as there are accumulated text that changes the value when flushed. Use a onGenericTag page event or a onParagraph. It gives you the rectangle where the Chunk is written.

Subject: Re: [iText-questions] Chapters / Sections without titles in the document
That's exactly what I've been looking at since this
morning, I begin to understand that PdfOutline stuff,
I think it's the solution I need ! :)
Actually I still have a very little problem, I thought
your 'TestOutlines' file would give me the answer but
it didn't : I'd like to make the PdfDestination point
exactly where I want it to, and for the moment, I
can't, I make it point to the top of the page (not
bad, but not perfect yet ! ). In your example, you use
PdfDestination.FIT, but I'd prefer to use
PdfDestination.FITH, and precise the exact position of
the link, as you do it in the PdfDocument.add()
method. To do that, I'd need the 'currentHeight'
field, which is unfortunately invisible to me... Is it
possible for you, in one way or another, to give us
access to this field ?
It not the only case when it might be useful, I've
already had a few "problems" which would have been so
simple to solve with that 'currentHeight' field ! (for
instance, when you try to calculate page jumps with
very complicated tables...)
Thanks a lot !
