  iTextSharp PDF NewLine

  Dec 10, 2008 05:55 AM|LINK

   Anyone know how to create a new line in an iTextSharp PDF document? I have the following so far for a cell in an iTextSharp.text.Table, but it just outputs one long string:

  
  

  Dim phrase1 As New Phrase("\n")
  Dim phrase2 As New Phrase()
  phrase2.Add(invCust_BusinessName)
  phrase2.Add(phrase1)
  phrase2.Add(invCust_FirstName + " " + invCust_Surname)
  phrase2.Add(phrase1)
  phrase2.Add(invCust_MailingAddress)
  phrase2.Add(phrase1)
  phrase2.Add(invCust_City + " " + invCust_State + " " + invCust_PostCode)
  phrase2.Add(phrase1)
  phrase2.Add(invCust_Country)

  Try Environment.NewLine instead of \n

  Dim phrase1 As New Phrase(Environment.NewLine) 

  \n is for C#, whereas for VB it's VbCrLf, but Environment.NewLine is language independent.
