Description Richard Harms 2008-05-19 09:36:41 CDT 
Currently not possible due to an incompatibility with the current version of displaytag. 2.1.2u contains improved Unicode support, so this upgrade should be pursued at some point.

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.lowagie.text.Table.setDefaultVerticalAlignment(I)V

setDefaultVerticalAlignment appears to have been completely removed from iText, and displaytag calls it for both PDF and RTF exports.
Comment 1 Richard Harms 2008-05-19 09:42:02 CDT 
More information on this problem:

http://www.nabble.com/Release-iText-2.1.0-td16334787.html

"This method has been removed as it was deprecated since 2.0.3. The 
deprecated message mentioned using getDefaultCell() and 
com.lowagie.text.Cell.setVerticalAlignment(int) instead so it should be 
pretty easy to adapt the code."

Other API changes are documented at:
