There is the user guide:
http://pdfbox.apache.org/userguide/faq.html

Then there's the Javadoc stuff ... and there's the PDF reference that Adobe
provides:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/pdf/

In many cases, function and parameter names have some reference to the PDF
reference.  I don't know about setTextMatrix.

I'm sure some more documentation would be appreciated.
