Hi All
briefly:
I am using ColumnText.showTextAligned() in the onEndPage() to display the
footer text but
it doesnt support multiline text. Is there an alternative component that I
can use to
display multiline text?
In Detail:
I basically want to implement a footer in the format below:
"
This is footer text and should continue onto the next
line when the max page width within the set margins
has been reached.
page <No>
"
In onEndPage()
My code looks like this:
//////////////////////////////////Footer//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
ColumnText.showTextAligned(writer.getDirectContent(),
Element.ALIGN_CENTER, new Phrase("page "+
writer.getPageNumber() ),
(rect.left() + rect.right()) / 2, rect.bottom() + 0,
ELEMENT_ROTATION);
ColumnText.showTextAligned(writer.getDirectContent(),
Element.ALIGN_CENTER, new Phrase("This is footer text and
should continue onto the next"),
(rect.left() + rect.right()) / 2, rect.bottom() + 20,
ELEMENT_ROTATION);
ColumnText.showTextAligned(writer.getDirectContent(),
Element.ALIGN_CENTER, new Phrase(" line when the max
page width within the set margins "),
(rect.left() + rect.right()) / 2, rect.bottom() +
40, ELEMENT_ROTATION);
ColumnText.showTextAligned(writer.getDirectContent(),
Element.ALIGN_CENTER, new Phrase(" has been reached.
"),
(rect.left() + rect.right()) / 2, rect.bottom() +
60, ELEMENT_ROTATION);
//////////////////////////////////End of
Footer////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I've tried \n to start new lines but it didnt work.
ps: I have tried to search for an answer to my questions quite rigorously
but couldnt find it.Even if you tag the question newb please try to answer
it or give me some pointers to work on.
thanks a lot in advance :)
