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.

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.
