Not really deliberated. iText started 10 years ago when a gigabyte was a lot
bigger than it is now. 2G looked enough then and now nobody has the time to
change the code to support it. I also doubt that there's a need for it safe for
a couple of people (Gylfi included).

Don't know about the Java version of iText, but last time I checked,
iTextSharp did not support generating PDF files greater than 2 GB and my
impression from Paulo was that this was deliberate and that adding that support
was not being planned.

PDF supports files that are hundreds/thousands of pedabytes(!) in size.
iText, however, may be limited to the original 10 gigabyte limitation.
