Hi All, I wish to contribute to Apache PDFBox but before that i was trying to understand the codebase. I am finding it very tough to understand the code base as i am not finding any flow to follow. Is there any documentation from which i can draw some high level insight of the PDFBox ?
Look at the examples... and start from there. Then look at an unsolved issue :-)
If this is about getting coding practice, google for BATIK-1109 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BATIK-1109> and BATIK-1110 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BATIK-1110>. One of the bugs is probably fixed by a few lines (although some debugging is needed to see how signed / unsigned values are handled there), the other one involves using code in PDFBox but in the way BATIK uses. Both bugs have been fixed in PDFBox, but not in BATIK (of which PDFBox used some code).
