I am creating a PDF using iText. I want to insert blank lines between paragraphs and tables.
How can I achieve this?
You can trigger a newline by inserting Chunk.NEWLINE
into your document. Here's an example.
public static void main(String args[]) {
try {
// create a new document
Document document = new Document( PageSize.A4, 20, 20, 20, 20 );
PdfWriter.getInstance( document, new FileOutputStream( "HelloWorld.pdf" ) );
document.open();
document.add( new Paragraph( "Hello, World!" ) );
document.add( new Paragraph( "Hello, World!" ) );
// add a couple of blank lines
document.add( Chunk.NEWLINE );
document.add( Chunk.NEWLINE );
// add one more line with text
document.add( new Paragraph( "Hello, World!" ) );
document.close();
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Below is a screen shot showing part of the PDF that the code above produces.
