Re: [iText-questions] gutters
OK. So maybe we mean something different by "gutter." Given a two page layout (it'll be more but...) i need the inside margin to be 1/4" and 1/2" on the outside which means that for every page in the PDF, the margins keep swapping. So page 1 will have 1/4" on the left, and page 2 will have 1/4" on the right, etc. Does that make sense? I'm not seeing anything just yet that gives me that unless i can change where the table is drawn when it spans a page. I'll keep playing with ColumnText, though...
