* Adopting PDFBox into the ASF is certainly an option if the people
involved in PDFBox really want that. A full PDF library with parsing and
rendering support might go beyond the XML Graphics' project boundaries,
however. It might need to go into a separate project. And that would
certainly be a big step which would need a lot of energy.

Jeremias, I'm not sure I agree with this comment. We get a lot of customers asking for an XSL-FO solution that can include a static PDF as the last page or similar. RenderX already offers the ability to include a PDF in a fo:external-graphic. If FOP had the ability to parse a PDF, then this feature would be a possibility for FOP *g*
