Excuse me but I did the effort of building a JUnit test to show the problem. If you had simply attempted to run it, which takes about 5 secs you would easily have seen what I meant, no offense. But I'll explain in detail.
The output document needs to be of a fixed height interval, depending on how much rows there are. I cannot just output on extra pages anytime i want. If the document is smaller than the minimum size i have to fill it up with whitespace. This fixed size is not absolute, there are several fixed sizes. So if I have a document that would be 15 cm, then I need to look for the nearest fixed interval, add whitespace to and cut the document, to a maximum. If that maximum is reached I can't just use a page nr 2, I have to build a new PDF document using the remaining data. However my testcase is very much simplified, and that's because those intervals are irrelevant. I just try to cut the document to the same size as the table in a way that the document is of the same size as the table. So Table(Rectangle).size == Document(Rectangle).size And why shouldn't I use PdfPTable? Your book has several chapters dedicated to PdfPTable. I don't understand... At least thanks for reading ... :-s -- View this message in context: http://itext-general.2136553.n4.nabble.com/PdfPTable-padding-and-spacing-tp2248510p2248734.html Sent from the iText - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.
