The release date entirely depends on you all. I had scheduled yesterday to update the changelog and write some documentation, but I had to spend the whole day answering questions. You should all thank Actuate for investing in iText, because if they didn't pay my employer, I'd have to do my day job as well, on top of the work I'm doing for iText. Maybe more companies should invest in my research project at Ghent University. Personally, I don't really need the money, but if the research project gets more funds, I may be able to hire and train an extra developer. I really could use somebody to do part of my work, but as you are all using iText for free (earning money with it), you'll have to be happy with what you get. Note that I'm not looking for consultancy assignments, because that would distract me from the core development (and I don't want to take away jobs from you guys). I only want to continue doing core development on iText, and look at how other products, such as Eclipse/BIRT work (add new functionality to iText that would be useful in BIRT), look at how jBoss SEAM works (and do the same),... Surely lots of multinationals benefit from this work, so maybe they should think about some more sponsoring? This message isn't addressed to freelance developers or small companies, I'm mainly talking about deals like the one with Actuate Corporation. > How will you access this new method? It will be very easy; I added a method to PdfPageLabels: public static String[] getPageLabels(PdfReader reader) The String array has as many elements as there are pages. As a side-effect, I also updated the List functionality; if you have more than 26 items in a list with letters as list symbol, z will be followed by aa, ab, ac,... zz will be followed by aaa, aab, aac,... br, Bruno ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
