    * </a>
    * <p>
    * Indeed, the code as presented by the OP does not show the header table. This makes sense, though:
    * </p>
    * <p>
    * The OP has cells with default padding (i.e. 2) and height 10, and he tries to insert text at height 7.
    * But 2 (top margin) + 7 (text height) + 2 (bottom margin) = 11, i.e. more than fits into the cell height 10.
    * Thus, the text does not fit and is not displayed.
    * </p>
    * <p>
    * You can fix this by either
    * <ul>
    * <li>using a smaller font, e.g. 6, or
    * <li>using a higher cell, e.g. 11, or
    * <li>using a smaller padding, e.g. 1, see below-

 * ParseHtml7 iText example
 * </a>
 * <p>
 * Indeed, the ParseHtml7 iText example does not respect page-break-before
 * style entries. The cause is that they are only supported when the elements
 * generated by the XML worker are directly added to the Document, not when
 * they are added to a table cell as in your example. Unfortunately RTL is
 * only supported inside table cells.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * {@link #testParseHtml7Improved()} shows how to explicitly support the
 * page-break-before style entries by recognizing the {@link Chunk#NEWPAGE}
 * elements generated for page-break-before elements and creating a new page
