Groovy is a great language. While in Java, not Groovy, the Platypus project (http://platypus.pz.org) is working on providing a higher-level layer for iText. The project is in the middle of a rewrite now (I am part of the team) to move to a plugin architecture so PDF, HTML, and Word docs will all be possible outputs--from the same high-level document description.
Platypus will include a scripting language, and that language will be...Groovy! (We had planned on JavaScript originally, but have migrated to Groovy as our preference.) All the best, mr. bean p.s.
