I have written the following code

BaseFont arial = BaseFont.CreateFont(@"C:\WINDOWS\FONTS\ARIAL.TTF",
BaseFont.CP1252,
BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);
Font f = new Font(arial, 10f, Font.NORMAL);
Document doc = new Document(PageSize.A4.Rotate());
PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, new FileStream(
@"..\..\test3.pdf", FileMode.Create));
doc.Open();
PdfContentByte cb = writer.DirectContent;
float[] pos1 = new float[] { 205, 426, 644, 446 };
float[] pos2 = new float[] { 205, 375, 644, 425 };
float[] pos3 = new float[] { 205, 354, 644, 374 };
AddColumnText(cb, "POS1 ", pos1, f);
AddColumnText(cb, "POS2 ", pos2, f);
AddColumnText(cb, "POS3 ", pos3, f);
doc.Close();

The AddColumnText method is

private static void AddColumnText(PdfContentByte cb, string text, float[]
pos, Font f)
{
ColumnText ct = new ColumnText(cb);
ct.SetSimpleColumn(pos[0], pos[1], pos[2], pos[3], 0, Element
.ALIGN_BOTTOM);
Chunk c = new Chunk(text, f);
ct.AddText(c);
ct.Go();
}

When I run this code the gap between POS1, and POS2 is very less. but the
gap between POS2 and POS3 is large. I do not understand this behaviour
because the rectange for POS3 is just 20 points and since the text is
aligned to the bottom, the gap between POS2 and POS3 should be less. POS1
and POS2 should have a lot of gap because the height of rectangle for POS2
is 50 pixels.

What is going on?

regards,
Abhishek.
