Hello
I am facing a weird situation that seems like a bug - unless i am missing
something. If someone can help, it will be very-very much appreciated, as i
am really desperate and this is needed urgently. Here's the story:
I am using a base class PDFProducer that is subclassed in order to produce
variations of documents with basically the same format. Sublasses call a
method named buildPdfDocumentAsTable in PDFProducer and provide it with
values that are used to (obviously) build a pdf that consists of a table.
One of these arguments is used to provide the table with headers. It works
fine for a normal A4 portrait document, but for some reason the header
content does not show when the document is landscape!
I've had quite some trouble with finding the right fonts in the first place,
so i suspect it might have something to do with that..but i've really tried
all i can think of and come up with nothing so far.
Has anyone ever come across a similar situation? Could this be some kind of
weird bug?
Help please!

The code for the method is as follows:

topHeadersFont,Integer[] topHeadersBorder,Boolean[]
topHeadersKeepBgColor,
String[] columnHeaders, boolean useHeaderColor,
java.util.List content, String[] textAfter, float[] widths)
