An IText Chunk example

Notice how sentence 1 and sentence 6 are printed ontop of each other. The IText Chunk object does not add line breaks, paragraph spacing or any other kind of spacing. It just adds the raw text at the next available location, left to right. When it reaches the right edge of the document, it restarts from the left edge, at the same Y location (same height).
