Align Paragraph at the center of the page

Question

I am using itext to generate pdf file. I want to align my title in the middle of the page. Presently i am using like this

Paragraph preface = new Paragraph();  
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    preface.add(new Paragraph(" "));
}

Is it correct or is there any another best way to do this.

Answer 1

Use Paragraph#setAlignment(int) :

Paragraph preface = new Paragraph(); 
preface.setAlignment(Element.ALIGN_CENTER);

See the ALIGN_* constants in the Element interface for more possible values.

Answer 2

Not sure if this is an old version, but for PdfWriter these methods weren't there. Instead I used:

Paragraph p = new Paragraph("This too shall pass");
p.Alignment = Element.ALIGN_CENTER;
