Hi,

the javadocs for the packages are currently in package.html files. Sine Java 
1.5 it's recommended to use package-info.java.

So I would like to 
a) change to that. package.html could  stay in place but I'd rather remove it.
b) enhance the content to provide a little more background and infos wrt to the 
PDF spec what the package covers as a first step.

WDYT?
