Not that I know of. I didn't test with iText 5.0.5, but it would surprise me if the fix was introduced recently. I vaguely remember that this was fixed longer ago, but I don't remember how it was fixed. Why are you stuck with the old version? If it's because you want to avoid paying a license: I'm sorry, then you're out of luck. If it's because you still need to run the application in JDK 1.4, then you could contact consultancy and ask them to make an offer to make a custom fix for you: http://www.itextpdf.com/contact.php#consultancy -- Learn how Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) One Node allows customers to consolidate database storage, standardize their database environment, and, should the need arise, upgrade to a full multi-node Oracle RAC database without downtime or disruption http://p.sf.net/sfu/oracle-sfdevnl ___ iText-questions mailing list iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Many questions posted to this list can (and will) be answered with a reference to the iText book: http://www.itextpdf.com/book/ Please check the keywords list before you ask for examples: http://itextpdf.com/themes/keywords.php

Hi,
thanks again for the quick reply.
> so whatever problem there was: it's already fixed ;-)
Good job.
Since I'm stuck to an old version, might there be a
workaround (i.e. wrapping my tables in some other object)?
Thanks

Hi,
thanks for the quick reply.
Does the problem also exist in the most recent iText version?
Yes it does (iText 5.0.5).
It doesn't in the SNAPSHOT version of iText 5.0.6.
See attached code sample as well as the resulting PDF,
so whatever problem there was: it's already fixed ;-)

[iText-questions] Tables and FormFields: Is this a bug?
Hi all,
thanks to help of you (especially 1T3XT BVBA) I'm now able to create tables
with PdfFormFields in them.
But now I'm having a strange side-effect:
The code attached generates the attached pdf. As you can see, the PdfFormFields
of the last table
are drawn on the second page, not in the table as I would expect.
My questions:
- Am I doing this the wrong way? If so, what is my problem here?
- Is this a bug? If so, is there a workaround?
Thanks
Jonny
