Cody Lerum commented on PDFBOX-1527:
------------------------------------
[~tilman] With regards to the paid for iText, many are using the pre AGPL
version and have no open source path. Additionally the iText license is yearly
so the cost is significant for smaller projects.
Bringing in some higher level layout functions would likely attract an
additional user and contributor base.
> Added table cells, page breaking, line, breaking, and transliteration
