hi all,

here are a few questions from an iText-novice:

Q1:

is it possible to use PdfContentByte.showText(...) with font-sytles
- so that i can write an underlined or strikethru string direct to
PdfContentByte without using Chunks & co.

Q2:

does anybody have experience with java TextLayout-class and
PdfGraphics2D - for me  the Graphics2D.drawString(...) method
is NOT sufficient (in jdk 1.3 the bounding box computation for a string
does not work properly together with drawString(..) so I had to switch 
to TextLayout)
However, TextLayout works also with PdfGraphics2D, but it generates an
image (or something similar) and inserts this image into the pdf.
One disadvantage of this is that user can not search for text inserted
by a TextLayout - has anybody written a - lets say PdfTextLayout class?

Q3:

btw:
what is the meaning of PdfContentByte.setTextRenderingMode(int)

tia - regards

ernsth
