That's a design question.
As you know the complete background of the project.
You are best placed to make the choice.
> PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase("text", "cell-attributes"));
> PdfPTable aTable = new PdfPTable(1);
> aTable.addCell(cell);
> document.add(aTable);
> document.setTagMap("tagmap.xml");
I see you work with PdfPTable and PdfPCell.
I think that's the best option, but I was a little bit
confused when you started talking about TagMap.
You can write your own TagMap functionality and define
some style parameters in it (subclass some iText classes
and read the TagMap in your own constructor).
You can get inspiration from the built-in TagMap class
functionality, but I don't think you can use it as-is
to achieve your goals.
