You're right, that's a bug. The DST should be included in the timezone. The
fix is in the CVS.

Subject: [iText-questions] Possible bug in PdfDate?


> Hello-

> I believe there may be a problem with PdfDate not respecting timezone

> For example, in the PdfDate constructor, it just uses the "raw" Calendar
> offset in the format:
>
> int timezone = d.get(Calendar.ZONE_OFFSET) / (60 * 60 * 1000);
>
> I believe it shouls also take into account the associated Daylight
> Savings Time offset as well, such as below:
>
> int timezone =
> (cal.get(Calendar.ZONE_OFFSET)+cal.get(Calendar.DST_OFFSET)) / (60 * 60
> * 1000);
