I've done a similar assignment for "De Persgroep".
It took me less than 2 days ;-)
The code is used in several magazines and in HLN.

I didn't say PdfPTables are bad in usage!

I'm just saying you shouldn't mow your lawn with a Ferrari, and you 
shouldn't enter a Grand Prix driving a lawn mower.

You shouldn't say a Ferrari is a bad car because it can't mow lawns, and 
you shouldn't say a lawn mower is a bad tool because it can't win a 
Grand Prix.

It's not a threat; it's an economic reality: Bob Van Rompuy says they 
are very happy using iText because it's "free". But my time isn't 
free... If you want me to solve your problem, you may want to ask Bob to 
buy support.

I don't feel like I'm threatening you; I feel like you're stealing time 
and revenue from me ;-)
