sure but cfdocument will probably stop working (though give it a try).

it will be harder for sure (you can't really appreciate what cfdocument does 
for 
you until you try to do it yourself) but certainly possible (iText is what many 
of us have been using pre-cfdocument & still do for some requirements). you'll 
have to use mark's javaloader to get at the iText jar as the cf one will still 
load ahead of your version (or i guess you could refactor it). these days the 
mysterious cfsearching is probably the best iText & cf resource:

there's also some stuff scattered around the cf forums:

if you do go w/"low-level" iText buy bruno's book, worth every penny i paid for 
it:
