I'm using iText to generate PDF reports when I came across this issue, and worked up a simple example to illustrate it.
I'm combining simple paragraphs, and images.
The height of the images is such that 3 will fit on a PDF page, but when if text is on a page, only 2 images will fit.
I create my PDF with the following code:
Document document = new Document(PageSize.LETTER, 0, 0, 0, 0);
PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, fileOutput);
document.open();
document.add(new Paragraph("hello world1"));
addImage(document);
addImage(document);
addImage(document);
document.add(new Paragraph("hello world2"));
document.close();
I expect the output to look like this
hello world1
image
image
<page break>
image
hello world2
Instead, what I get is,
Hello world 1
image
image
hello world 2
<page break>
image
I'm not setting any sort of odd wrapping parameters using iText, the example really is just a simple one.
Any ideas on why it seems to be auto-wrapping this incorrectly?
In the real case, just adding a page break is not an acceptable solution.
Thanks very much.
