>             Project: PDFBox

>    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
>            Reporter: John Hewson
>
> We want to refactor the core pdfbox module packages so that there is no 
> longer a dependency on AWT. Any packages which are moved outside the of the 
> org.apache.pdfbox module need to be re-packaged appropriately (e.g. 
> org.apache.pdfbox.rendering).
> AWT code could live in "pdfbox-rendering" but we need to think carefully 
> about how to do this because, e.g. some of the Filters use AWT, as does 
> FontBox.
> What are the use cases for modularisation, currently we have:
> - Android
> - Google App Engine
> Android seems to have some support for AWT and ImageIO, can somebody in the 
> know provide more information?
> Google App Engine seems to blacklist ImageIO and AWT classes. Is there a 
> strong desire to support it?
