Patch

If a column has fixed width in table layout for pdf and the width of column is smaller as one char of the current font and the current font is simulated for italic then getWidth() method of TextArea is wrong. 

On each call the width field is increased, event is width was zero. This prevents the hyphenation code to put at least one char into the area. So the same text is handled again and again. Each iteration add a new (empty) area and we run out of memory.

This problems seems to exists also in the head version.

See attached patch.

Regards,
 Harald
