title: iText Flying Saucer pdf headers and ignoring html
body: <p>We use xhtml to pdf with good success, but a new requirement came up to have headers and page count on every page.  We are using newset release of Flying Saucer.</p>
  
  <p>I followed example here: <a href="http://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2007/06/26/generating-pdfs-with-flying-saucer-and-itext.html#page-specific-features" rel="nofollow">http://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2007/06/26/generating-pdfs-with-flying-saucer-and-itext.html#page-specific-features</a></p>
  
  <p>...but this would not work. The header would be top left on first page.</p>
  
  <p>If I use the r7 version, headers and page numbering works perfectly, but none  of the passed in html is rendered, whilst in r8 the headers\ page numbers are ignored, but the html is rendered perfectly.  xHTML used for tests is copied from url above.</p>
  
  <p>I know I must be missing something very simple, if anyone has any ideas\ comments, I would be very grateful to hear.</p>
