Well now that I try to do the footer with a table I am having a problem.
Here is what I am doing in VB.Net (pseudo code):
Dim phrase as Phrase = new Phrase()
Dim table as PdfPTable = new PdfPTable(1)
Table.AddCell("footer text")
Phrase.Add(table)
Dim footer as HeaderFooter = new HeaderFooter(phrase,false)
Doc.footer = footer
The footer is rendered, but it is blank. If I add more cells to the table,
the footer height increases, but still no text is rendered.
What do I misunderstand?
Thanks for your help,
Rick

I would use a PdfPTable with 2 cells.
One aligned to the left, the other to the right.
Set the border to PdfPCell.NO_BORDER.
