Thank you. This looks like exactly what I am looking for.
One more question, is there a way for a given text to find compute the size of
the rectangle that would fit the text, assuming some horizontal
constraints (let's say the width can't go beyond a certain value).
Thank you again.

Subject: RE: [iText-questions] shrink text to fit rectangle
There's some code in iText that does precisely this.
Look in the TextField
source for appearance generation when the font size is set to zero,
starting on line 213 for multiline text, or on 247 for single-line
text.
