One way to do this, would be to create a ColumnText object having the 
same dimensions of the cell. Then add content to the object and invoke 
column.go(true);
The "true" parameter tells iText you want to "simulate" adding content. 
No content will actually be added. You can ask the column objects how 
many lines were needed, if all the text was added, and so on.
