iText PDFTable overwrites Footertable

[Jan Stanetzki]

Hi,

I am new to itext. I usedPageEvent-Exampel
(http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/examples/com/lowagie/examples/directcontent/pageevents/EndPage.java)
for creating a table-footer. I tried to create an invoice-document with
itext, but the itemstable is very long and overwrites the footer .... Is
there any way to declare a "footer area" or sth. like that so that the
table knows "when to break"?!

Thanks,
Jan

Hi Paulo,

thanks! This ist the last value in:

new Document( PageSize.A4, 16, 16, 16, 16 );

right? I tried it already - the effect was, that the footer has more
space at the bottomline, but the item-table overwrites the footer again
.... Here's my "onEndPage"-Function:

    public void onEndPage(PdfWriter writer, Document document) {
        try {
            Rectangle page = document.getPageSize();
            PdfPCell cell;
            PdfPTable fussTabelle = new PdfPTable(1);
            cell = fussTabelle.getDefaultCell();
            cell.setBorderWidth(1);
            cell.setHorizontalAlignment(PdfPCell.ALIGN_CENTER);
            fussTabelle.addCell(new Phrase("Line1 " +
                    "\nLine2: " +
                    "Line3\n", smallFont));
           //Centers the footertable at the bottom.
            fussTabelle.setTotalWidth( (page.getWidth()*0.85F -
document.leftMargin() - document.rightMargin()));
            fussTabelle.writeSelectedRows(0, -1,
document.leftMargin()+(0.075F*page.getWidth()),
document.bottomMargin()+20,writer.getDirectContent());
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            throw new ExceptionConverter(e);
        }
    }

Thank you,
Jan

Yes, you have a bottom margin of 16pt.

> document.bottomMargin()+20

You tell iText to draw the table 20pt above the bottom margin. As the
bottom margin is 16, the table will start at 36pt (half an inch) from
the bottom.

No surprises there: you're telling the table it should overlap with the
content.

document.bottomMargin()+20 will place the footer table 20 points above the bottom margin and overwrite the main table.
