You can probably make use of setSkipFirstHeader(boolean) of PdfPTable. Which will not print out the first occurrence of the header of your table. You will need to be sure to setHeaderRows on the table.

You could also subclass the PdfPageEventHelper and in the onEndPage event, use the passed in Document object to getPageNumber(). When you determine it is past the first page, you can add your header content to the document.
