It's a strange way of doing layout in a PDF:)

But I think there are no extra lines added. The lines you speak of have one whitespace more then others in your txt file. ( just like the line ELI A GREEN 1842 BLACK/DK PEWTER 04/16/01 21 03/03/05 ) Remove the trailingspaces in the txt and you should achieve the result you want.

I'm converting a plain, vanilla text file (attached) to a pdf (also attached). The problem is that there is too much white space between the lines in the pdf. There are no extra blank lines in the text file -- lines are just separated by a crlf. (I'm speaking in particular of lines 11-16, i.e., "POWER WINDOWS" thru "BRAKE CONCERN".) How can I remove the white space between these lines so that they're closer together? Here's the code I'm using:

string txtfile = @"C:\Temp\00002RX06I00QL_sanitized.txt";

string outfile = @"C:\Temp\Text.pdf";

string txtcontent = File.ReadAllText(txtfile);

Document document = new Document(new iTextSharp.text.Rectangle(72 * 8.5f, 72 * 17f), 0, 0, 0, 0);

PdfWriter.GetInstance(document, new FileStream(outfile, FileMode.Create));

          document.Open();

Paragraph par = new Paragraph(txtcontent, FontFactory.GetFont(FontFactory.COURIER, 8, iTextSharp.text.Font.NORMAL));

          document.Add(par);

          document.Close();

Thanks!
