It would be nice to be able to easily implements derived class of PdfGraphics2D to slightly modify its behavior.
In the current version, the constructor and some methods are not visible from other packages/classes like waitForImage().

Thanks!

There's a couple of issues here that start with the definition of core iText 
functionalities. I would call this the primitives needed to generate a PDF 
using only the iText API. We then have some accessories that are essentially 
examples and utilities, like the itexttools now with an autonomous project, 
and converters like HTMLWorker and PdfGraphics2D. PdfGraphics2D does a 
decent job as long as you don't go into transparency and shading. These are 
functions that have many diferences between the awt and the pdf model and 
that even in a printer driver, for example, are usually flattened into a 
bitmap, something that you can also do with a BufferedImage.

It would be useful to have a list, esp. since the book does not sound
like PdfGraphics2D is "full of limitations". On the contrary it states
very flatly that you can use iText either directly or through Java2D,
w/o any suggestion that the latter way is full of caveats: only four
such caveats are listed on p. 361
