Re: [iText-questions] Alignment of text in a Paragraph within a Cell
If you need multiple paragraphs in a single cell with different alignments, then I think you will have to use a nested inner table and set the alignment on the individual cells in the inner table. Also, be aware that there are known problems with nested tables inside Table. You would probably be better off using PdfPTable and the itext-paulo-139 version at itextpdf.sf.net. - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Steve Appling" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, October 12, 2004 9:44 AM Subject: Re: [iText-questions] Alignment of text in a Paragraph within a Cell > > > > > Steve, > > Thanks for ur reply.

Re: [iText-questions] Alignment of text in a Paragraph within a Cell
Steve,
Thanks for ur reply. This code works.
I have the another requirement where i need to add the following rich
text to the cell.
String htmlText = "Left aligmentcenter alignmentRight alignment";
I am using the SAXiTextHandler.java as the handler to parse the
richtext. I defined a class TextElementArrayWriter which implements the
DocListener and using this object during creation of the handler object.
Here i am attaching the TextElementArrayWriter.java class
The htmlText String contains 3 paragraphs with different alignments.
So please let me know how to keep the alignment for that cell with many
paragraphs.
/** This class implements the document listener interface.
* Instead of writing to a document, this class adds content
* to an element
*/
public class TextElementArrayWriter implements DocListener
{
private TextElementArray element;
public TextElementArrayWriter(TextElementArray element)
{
this.element = element;
}
public void open()
{
}
public boolean setPageSize(Rectangle pageSize)
{
return false;
}
public boolean add(Watermark watermark)
{
return false;
}
public void removeWatermark()
{

public boolean setMargins(float marginLeft, float marginRight, float
marginTop, float marginBottom)
{

}
public boolean newPage() throws DocumentException

public void setFooter(HeaderFooter footer)

public void resetFooter()

public void resetPageCount()
{
}
public void setPageCount(int pageN)
{
}
public void clearTextWrap() throws DocumentException
{
}
public void close()
{
}
/**

public boolean add(Element addElement) throws DocumentException
{
element.add(addElement);
return true;
}
}

Alignment of text in a Paragraph within a Cell
PM
Use code like this with the current version:
Cell cell = new Cell(p);
cell.setHorizontalAlignment(Element.ALIGN_RIGHT);
aTable.addCell(cell);
It works when set from the cell level, but the paragraph alignment does not
apply. I think this
could be considered a bug.
It is easy to fix in the constructor for Cell(Paragraph), but if you use
the default constructor for
Cell or PdfPCell, it is a little messier.
You would need to probably keep another alignment state that works like
ALIGN_LEFT, but indicates
that current alignment had been set explicitly. Then Cell.addElement or
PdfPCell.addElement would
have to override the default alignment if it hadn't been set explicitly
yet. Seems messy.
Paulo, are you interested in supporting this? I'll add it if you think it
should work this way.

Re: [iText-questions] Alignment of text in a Paragraph within a Cell
Leave it as it is. Any change there would break all the existing code.

[iText-questions] Alignment of text in a Paragraph within a Cell
Hi,
I am trying to align the text in a paragraph with a cell using the
following code. It works fine in RTF. But it is not working in PDF.
In PDF it is displaying all the text as Left aligned.
Please let me know the fix for this.
Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4);
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new
FileOutputStream("c:\\alogs\\Orientation.pdf"));
document.open();
Paragraph p = new Paragraph("Left Alignment");
p.setAlignment("left");
Table aTable = new Table(2,2);
aTable.addCell(new Cell(p));
p = new Paragraph("Right Alignment");
p.setAlignment("right");
aTable.addCell(new Cell(p));
p = new Paragraph("Center Alignment");
p.setAlignment("center");
aTable.addCell(new Cell(p));
aTable.addCell(new Cell(new Phrase("col22: ",
IReportConstants.FONT_TABLE_COLUMN)));
document.add(aTable);
document.close();
Thanks
