Class RtfAddableElement

java.lang.Object
  com.lowagie.text.Chunk
      com.lowagie.text.rtf.RtfAddableElement

All Implemented Interfaces:

Element, RtfBasicElement, RtfElementInterface

Direct Known Subclasses:

RtfDirectContent, RtfShape, RtfShapePosition, RtfShapeProperty, RtfTab, RtfTabGroup

public abstract class RtfAddableElement
extends Chunk
implements RtfBasicElement

The RtfAddableElement is the superclass for all rtf specific elements that need to be added to an iText document. It is an extension of Chunk and it also implements RtfBasicElement. It is an abstract class thus it cannot be instantiated itself and has to be subclassed to be used.
