Sure would be nice if appengine would decide to support awt - it would
solve this problem and many others. (Vote for it here
http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=1423).
However, my impression is that they have no intention to do so any
time soon - it must cause some significant problems for their
infrastructure.

Someone apparently got iText to run in app-engine
http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine-java/msg/419faf63fff47ef7

and there was an issue posted to itext on sourceforge, but I can't
seem to access the itext project there anymore - perhaps they moved?
