I have searched through the mail archives, and examined the API and
tutorial, but still have not found a straight-forward way of doing this.
I need to construct a PDF from text input, where that text contains a token
character ( e.g: * ) that indicates a line to be drawn.

The program needs to dynamically convert these to lines and boxes inline
with the text.

Examples of text input:

************  Praesent suscipit  ************

*********************************************
* Cras facilisis rhoncus ante In ute neque. *
* Maecenas iaculis tempor massa. Seda quam  *
*********************************************

********************     ********************
* accumsan et            * Donec magna
* vitae rhoncus          * luctus vitae
* Praesent nonummy       * facilisis tortor

Attached is an image showing the desired outcome in the PDF of the  above
sample.

I would appreciate your advise on the best strategy to implement this using
the iText API.

Thanks,

JB
