Just wondering, I'm positioning text at absolute positions. How can I do this with chunks? is it possible?

The tutorial is not clear but if you create a Font with a BaseFont and a
style bold and/or italic that style will be automatically simulated. You
can still use Chunk.setTextRenderMode() and Chunk.setSkew() if you need
to further customize the result.

Whats the trick with the rendition?
      
Take a look at the examples here:
http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/tutorial/objects/chunk/#rendering

You can simulate bold by changing the filling and stroking of 
characters.
You can simulate italic by skewing text.
