/**
 * A <CODE>Table</CODE> is a <CODE>Rectangle</CODE> that contains <CODE>Cell</CODE>s,
 * ordered in some kind of matrix.
 * <P>
 * Tables that span multiple pages are cut into different parts automatically.
 * If you want a table header to be repeated on every page, you may not forget to
 * mark the end of the header section by using the method <CODE>endHeaders()</CODE>.
 * <P>
 * The matrix of a table is not necessarily an m x n-matrix. It can contain holes
 * or cells that are bigger than the unit. Believe me or not, but it took some serious
 * thinking to make this as user friendly as possible. I hope you will find the result
 * quite simple (I love simple solutions, especially for complex problems).
 * I didn't want it to be something as complex as the Java <CODE>GridBagLayout</CODE>.
 * <P>
 * Example:
 * <BLOCKQUOTE><PRE>
 * // Remark: You MUST know the number of columns when constructing a Table.
 * //         The number of rows is not important.
 * <STRONG>Table table = new Table(3);</STRONG>
 * <STRONG>table.setBorderWidth(1);</STRONG>
 * <STRONG>table.setBorderColor(new Color(0, 0, 255));</STRONG>
 * <STRONG>table.setPadding(5);</STRONG>
 * <STRONG>table.setSpacing(5);</STRONG>
 * Cell cell = new Cell("header");
 * cell.setHeader(true);
 * cell.setColspan(3);
 * <STRONG>table.addCell(cell);</STRONG>
 * <STRONG>table.endHeaders();</STRONG>
 * cell = new Cell("example cell with colspan 1 and rowspan 2");
 * cell.setRowspan(2);
 * cell.setBorderColor(new Color(255, 0, 0));
 * <STRONG>table.addCell(cell);</STRONG>

 * <STRONG>table.addCell("2.1");</STRONG>
