Hmm... an argument could be made that not firing the OnGenericTag code a
bug. onGenericTag's rect parameter might be a little odd to calculate,
but it should be possible.
And while you could make the same argument about the localGoTo, there's
a Significant Technical Hurdle there. Goto's are link annotations on a
page. A PdfTemplate can exist on multiple pages. I haven't gone
through the relevant code, but its also possible that the PdfTemplate
isn't a part of any page when we'd normally tack on the link annotation.
In the meanwhile, you'll just have to work around the problem.
You'll have to create the link annotation[s] yourself with one of the
PdfAnnotation.createLink() overrides. Don't forget to call setPage() on
the returned link object before calling PdfWriter.addAnnotation(). Note
that you can use the same PdfAnnotation instance on multiple pages IF
they all link to exactly the same place & page, and all exist in the
same coordinates on each page.
PS: If you use one of the createLink()'s that takes a PdfAction, you
might be interested in the PdfAction constants FIRSTPAGE, PREVPAGE,
NEXTPAGE, and LASTPAGE. That would allow you to reuse the same link
annotation over and over for "prev" or "next" arrows.

Subject: Re: [iText-questions] problems about chunk
I understand. However, I have to use template, cause I don't
know the correct text yet when I add the template.

I believe those functions are only available when you
add the chunk via document.add but not through template.

Hi,
I'm not sure if the following issues are bugs or
not.
1. When I try to use Chunk.setGenericTag()
function, and the chunk is added to a PdfTemplate, then it will not
trigger the page's onGenericTag event.
2. When the chunk is about to be added to a
PdfTemplate, the chunk's setLocalGoto() will not function.
Please advise. Thanks a lot.
Colley
