About Me: I am a java teacher and programer。I seek projects for my student.It's difficult to develop PDFBox GUI for my students,because they student one year up to 2010-7-1.They can complete a plugin at the mentor's help。I am the mentor.
I can contribute 15 hour every hour.Write mail is slow for me,I'd like to write wiki or code. 2010/2/22 nisen <nisen...@gmail.com>: > I am this discuss beginer. > Sorry for late reply.I just came back from China Spring Festival and > returned to working mode. > > I study a lot from your reply.I summary next: > * Not only a reader,it's a PDFBoxGUI:reader,editor,other tools > * There are no APL/ASL PDF GUI > * Everyone like the idea but have no much time.We are busy :) > * plug-ins > > other PDF GUI (open source,share or commercial) > * inforama ( http://www.inforama.org ) > * NeoOffice > * Adobe Acrobat Professional > * Foxit (http://www.foxitsoftware.com/) > * xpdf > * ICEpdf > * more ......... need you add > > > 2010/1/30 Dexter Mishra <dexter.mis...@gmail.com>: >> Well neither I have been a mentor, nor want to be.
