Itext: Write selected rows from table to a document

By using 'writeSelectedRows' method of PdfPTable class, you can write selected rows to the document.

public float writeSelectedRows(final int rowStart, final int rowEnd, final float xPos, final float yPos, final PdfContentByte[] canvases)

public float writeSelectedRows(final int colStart, final int colEnd, final int rowStart, final int rowEnd, final float xPos, final float yPos, final PdfContentByte[] canvases)

public float writeSelectedRows(int colStart, int colEnd, int rowStart, int rowEnd, final float xPos, float yPos, final PdfContentByte[] canvases, final boolean reusable)

public float writeSelectedRows(final int rowStart, final int rowEnd, final float xPos, final float yPos, final PdfContentByte canvas)

public float writeSelectedRows(final int colStart, final int colEnd, final int rowStart, final int rowEnd, final float xPos, final float yPos, final PdfContentByte canvas)

public float writeSelectedRows(int colStart, int colEnd, final int rowStart, final int rowEnd, final float xPos, final float yPos, final PdfContentByte canvas, final boolean reusable)
