PdfWriter - unwanted page break after table

[Andrea Lombardoni <andrea (at) lombardoni.ch>]

I am using itext-1.4.6.jar and I am experiencing the following problem.

When using the PdfWriter, after a table is split between two pages, an unwanted
page break occurs. The content resumes on the new page.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

This was reported also here:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.lib.itext.general/22922/focus=22942

but without any definite answer.

The following is the example code:
 
/**
Class used to test iText output
*/
public class TestiText extends PdfPageEventHelper{
    public final static String OUT_FILE_PDF = "out.pdf";
    public final static String OUT_FILE_HTML = "out.html";
    public final static String OUT_FILE_RTF = "out.rtf";

    public static void main(String[] args){
        try{
            FileOutputStream pdfOut = new FileOutputStream(OUT_FILE_PDF);
            FileOutputStream rtfOut = new FileOutputStream(OUT_FILE_RTF);
            FileOutputStream htmlOut = new FileOutputStream(OUT_FILE_HTML);

            Document doc = new Document(PageSize.A4);

            PdfWriter pdfWriter = PdfWriter.getInstance(doc, pdfOut);
            pdfWriter.setPageEvent(new TestiText());
            RtfWriter rtfWriter = RtfWriter.getInstance(doc, rtfOut);
            HtmlWriter htmlWriter = HtmlWriter.getInstance(doc, htmlOut);

            doc.open();

            for(int tc=0;tc<100;tc++){
              Paragraph p = new Paragraph("test para");
              doc.add(p);

              Table t  = new Table(2);

              t.setTableFitsPage(false);
              for(int rc=0;rc<30;rc++){
                Cell c1 = new Cell("table: "+tc+" left row: "+rc);
                Cell c2 = new Cell("table: "+tc+" right row: "+rc);
                t.addCell(c1);
                t.addCell(c2);
              }
              doc.add(t);
            }
            doc.close();
        }catch(Exception e){
            System.out.println("Exception e: "+e);
        }
    }
}
