Well, got it to compile without all the extra libs - changed the compiler to "modern" from "jikes". Lots of errors without the lucene, checkstyle and junit, but the examples I'm interested in work fine.
Was able to parse a PDF with AcroForm fields, and return the names and values using org.pdfbox.examples.fdf.PrintFields Also interested in org.pdfbox.examples.fdf.ImportFDF, will test after building an FDF. This appears to have many of the PDF reading capabilities missing in iText, appears to be a good complement to iText. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charles Hicks" To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, November 01, 2002 5:06 PM Subject: [iText-questions] Of Interest - PDFBox Just ran across another LGPL Java PDF Library: http://www.pdfbox.org It claims to be able to extract text from, merge and decrypt PDF documents. Has a utility for merging FDF data into PDF form fields. Somewhat cryptic documentation, no examples, no compiled version. Tried to compile with Ant, but need to download numerous additional libraries (jikes, lucerne, ...) first. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: See the NEW Palm Tungsten T handheld.
