This doesn't answer your question, but have you read:

I don't understand what you want to achieve.
Since you are generating PDF, not reading it,
why do you need to copy a part of a Pdf Document?

I don't have the time to take a look at it right now,
but it sounds very promising.

I have 1 remark about your very nice site, you write: 

'25/12/2001
Outputting PDF file is available with iText.
GPL licence is undertaken because PDF library does' 

This is not true, there is a big difference between
LGPL (iText) and GPL (your product). 

see http://www.lowagie.com/iText/faq.html#lgpl 

You are free to publish your code under GPL, but
I nor Paulo will use it unless it's LGPL (or MPL,
we made the iText license less strict). 

kind regards,
Bruno Lowagie
