That's why IDR solutions offers examples that combine their
JPedal PDF Viewer with iText. SUN's PDF Renderer was only
released a few months ago, I don't know of any products that
combine their viewer with iText yet, apart from RUPS, a tool
that was released in beta recently. RUPS won't help you
because it's targeted at a completely different audience:
it's for debugging PDF syntax.

I fear it will be very hard to find such a tool.

Using the JPedal/iText combination is probably the closest
you'll get to a solution. (Of course: I don't know the
complete market, so if you ever find another solution,
please send some feedback to this list!)
