Yeah, I'm starting to realize that. I don't use the library every day, but have used it in a bunch of projects. The base of my knowledge is probably dated back to v2.0 code and at that time, I think the standard message was "iText doesn't do text extraction, we don't want to do it, use pdfbox or jpedal to do that."
In my spare time, I will try and go back and convert my code to use the latest iText classes to do that. As I said, I always prefer to use iText over other libraries whenever possible.
