We have a system that currently uses FDF files to create dynamic PDFs
using a form template. There are fields defined in the template and data
is associated with each field. A field can be marked as multiline and a
field's font size can be 'Auto' (the font size is reduced to fit all the
text within the field). 

Since there the FDF system has limitations, we are moving to iText and
creating the PDFs programmatically. Is there similar font
wrapping/sizing behavior built into iText?

I want to give:
* the X/Y location 
* the width/height of a rectangle
* the text string (or bytes)

And do:
* draw text into that area
* have the text automatically wrap
* have the text scale to fit the space

If this is not built into iText, has anyone done something similar?
Is there publically available code that will    do this?
If not, what iText methods and/or AWT methods would help in coding this
behavior?

thx
a
