I don't think iText itself does any file access. If your customers aren't
allowed to use CFOBJECT or CreateObject, then they won't be able to do much
with it. If they are, then they will have access to the java.io classes
anyway. It's those classes that do the actual file reading & writing - iText
just adds functionality which understands how certain types of files are
structured.
