Question

I want to get the first and second column height to know if I need to call document.NewPage() or not. But, I can’t find a way to do this without adding the table to the document.

Example:

PdfPRow firstRow = new PdfPRow(cells1.ToArray());
table.Rows.Add(firstRow);
PdfPRow secondRow = new PdfPRow(cells2.ToArray());
table.Rows.Add(secondRow);

float h1 = table.GetRowHeight(0), h2 = table.GetRowHeight(1);

if (currentY - h1 - h2 < 30) document.NewPage();

document.Add(table);

See my answer here. Basically, you can’t know the dimensions of a table until it renders. However, you can render the table to a document that you just throw away and then re-render it later.
