Hi Guys,

Sorry if this posts twice. I tried posting it using Google Chrome about 14 hours
ago and it still hasn't appeared so I'm going to assume it's another bug in
their program.

I've been using iText for years (using the latest version right now) and have
had one problem that's occasionally occured. I finally sat down and tried to
figure the problem out and here's my issue:

I generate a table of contents which is a combination of a few tables. I call
document.getNewPage, then call write.getPageNumber() before I start writing the
TOC and I call it right after. Then I subtract the two and add 1 (as the TOC
could start and end on the same page) to figure out the total number of TOC
pages. The problem is that every once in a while the last table print out very
close to the end of the last page (but does not go over and no extra page is
printed). When this happens writer.getPageNumber() returns the NEXT page number
rather than the current page number the TOC is on.

To test this I also tried getting the end page number, call document.newPage()
and getting the page number again. The times when the numbers come out ok there
will be a difference of one page. When the problem occurs (table is close to end
of the page), I'll get the same page number before and after the
document.newPage() call, both are 1 higher than they should be. This screws up
all my page numbering and my reordering later on as well.

Anyone have any ideas on this? It's been happening since back in the 1.x
versions of iText (this is for Java).

Thanks,
