I have a table with two cells. The first cell is left aligned and the
second cell is right aligned. I also want to change the character spacing
of the text. I have found that changing the character spacing breaks the
alignment so the right align text ends up outside the boundaries if the
table.
I have created some test code below and the link to the output PDF is in
this link
https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=1ECE2061CFF9124B!190&authkey=!ANcB0z_BN3N4UFo
Are there any alternatives or workarounds to getting the character spacing
working well with the right alignment?
public void CharacterSpacingTest()
{
float margin = 50;
using (var stream = new MemoryStream())
{
Document document = new Document();
document.SetPageSize(new Rectangle(PageSize.A4.Width,
PageSize.A4.Height));
document.SetMargins(margin, margin, 30f, 100f);
PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(document, stream);
writer.CloseStream = false;
document.Open();
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(new float[] { 100 });
table.TotalWidth = PageSize.A4.Width - margin - margin;
table.WidthPercentage = 100f;
table.LockedWidth = true;
// Create a row that is right aligned
PdfPCell cell1 = new PdfPCell();
cell1.AddElement(new Paragraph("Hello World") { Alignment =
Element.ALIGN_RIGHT });
cell1.BorderWidth = 1;
table.AddCell(cell1);
// Change the character spacing
PdfContentByte cb = writer.DirectContent;
cb.SetCharacterSpacing(1f);
// Create a row that is left aligned
PdfPCell cell2 = new PdfPCell();
cell2.AddElement(new Paragraph("Hello World"));
cell2.BorderWidth = 1;
table.AddCell(cell2);
document.Add(table);
document.Close();
Blobs.SaveToFile(Blobs.LoadFromStream(stream),
@"c:\Dev\test.pdf");
}
}
