How do I get my text to be both bold and italic in iText?

Question

I am trying to make my text both bold and italic at the same time for a paragraph in a PDF document using iText.

I can use either of these for bold and italic respectively, but not both simultaneously:

Font font = new Font(Font.FontFamily.TIMES_ROMAN, 10, Font.FontStyle.BOLD.ordinal());

Font font = new Font(Font.FontFamily.TIMES_ROMAN, 10, Font.FontStyle.ITALIC.ordinal());

How can I use both?

Answer 1

Try

Font font = new Font(Font.FontFamily.TIMES_ROMAN, 10, Font.BOLDITALIC);
