I don't understand your question. If I run this example: http://1t3xt.info/examples/browse/?page=example&id=120 The following information is written to the System.out: Lines written:9 Y-position: 806.0 - 644.0 Lines written:6 Y-position: 644.0 - 536.0 Lines written:11 Y-position: 536.0 - 338.0 Lines written:14 Y-position: 338.0 - 86.0 Lines written:2 Y-position: 86.0 - 50.0 This is one of the examples for the 1st edition of iText in Action, and it deals with getting control over what happens in ColumnText as described in the book. Are you saying that this example always returns the same Y and the same number of lines (zero)??? You are confusing me. -- This answer is provided by 1T3XT BVBA http://www.1t3xt.com/ - http://www.1t3xt.info ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
