Hi Paulo,
I tried what you said and it work. This means I am able to create a
vertical text without using CJK fonts. The great thing about vertical
text is that I can set it's position like the following
VerticalText vt;
vt = new VerticalText(cb);
vt.setVerticalLayout(x, y, height, 1, leading);
vt.addText(new Chunk(convertCid("Text"), new Font(bf, 18)));
vt.go();
Can I do this with a PdfPCell too? I didn't find out how.
The idea is that I have several short vertical texts around and on an
image to create kind of a legend. So I need always just one cell in a
Table with vertical text.
Thanks for any hint!
Kind regards
Sorin
