[iText-questions] Phrase containing Chunks/Phrase with multiple Run
Directions

David Powell

2007-12-03



Currently, in iText I can create a new Phrase object with a main font and
then within the Phrase I can have additional Chunks or Phrases with
different fonts. Therefore, likewise would it be possible to create a
Phrase with a main run direction and then add additional Chunks or Phrases
to it with different run directions ?

I know that iText does not currently support thism, but I am just looking at
how i can possibly extend the Phrase class to meet a special need, Which is
to output some text in left-to-right and right-to-left language on the same
line using ColumnText.go() method, instead of ColumnText.showTextAligned
(which requires absolute positioning).

Can the Phrase class be extended in this way ?
