I had the impression the problem was solved. Let me retry to rephrase the situation. You have a header and a footer. This header and footer is the same on every page. You add them with a page event and it's a piece of cake to find out their dimensions (Y-top and Y-bottom are the relevant coordinates). Now you want to add several columns. You can do this with MultiColumnText or ColumnText. If you use MultiColumnText, you can do this in an automated mode that takes into account the margins you defined (Y-top and Y-bottom). You can also tell MultiColumnText where to start the column (Y-top), but then you have to work with isOverflow(). You have tried this, but you answered you had a problem with that. You say you don't know how many rows each of these tables has before outputting them to the MCT, but I don't see why this is an issue. That should be completely irrelevant, unless there's something you're not telling us. If I had to do the job, I'd use ColumnText. But that's my personal taste. MultiColumnText is a convenience class built on top of ColumnText. It is meant to make your life easier. And it does for most people. If it doesn't make it easier for you, you'll have to give a better explanation why not because I don't see the problem.
