Title: RE: [iText-questions] editing iText classes and packages

I can see a problem right away with such deap integration: JPS requires jdk 1.4. What about those that are using 1.2.2 or 1.3?

The JPS must be a separate package, just like the XML is.

Best Regards,
Paulo Soares

    Actually, I think that the best would be for me to become a developer. But it
    depends on your long term interest in what I did.

    As I have let Bruno Lowagie know several days ago, I developed a JPS front-end
    to iText (i.e. a layer that offers the ability to print in PFDs directly from
    Java). I would like to make it available as an integral part of iText, under
    the same licensing terms.

    There is a necessity to modify some iText sources (PdfContentByte and
    PdfGraphics2D) in order to allow the introduction for a method like
    PdfContentByte.createPrinterGraphics(). There's also a small new package
    which currently bears another name than "itext".

    You may want and I myself would like that you ((one of) the 3 developers) 
    review what I wrote.
