Because we are not using PdfStamper. Instead the catalog is obtained via
PdfReader , then
Is it possible to add PageLabels references directly to the PDF catalog
dictionary without using the built-in method PdfWriter.setPageLabels() ?
If so , how can this be done ? a small code snippet would help here.
Thanks.

I am adding several large paragraphs of text of varying length to a
ColumnText object. However, I would like the paragraphs that contains more
than 5 lines of text to be automatically truncated after 5 lines (i.e. only
the 1st 5 lines of text in the paragraph should be rendered to the
ColumnText).

THE SOLUTION:
Split the mix language string into substring containing text with LTR and

'\u200E' to each RTL substring.
