Hi, sorry, but you mailed the wrong person ...1T3XT BVBA is not me, I am
iPLText .... and I did not write such hard stuff. Sorry as well, that I only
now came across your mail, as it landed in my spamfilter. My Post was this one
... even though I am afraid it was not too helpful as well ...
====================== Hi, I am not sure, what you mean by there is no javadoc,
have you e.g. been looking at: http://api.itextpdf.com/ which does enlist all
methods so far. I admit, it still leaves room for questions, especially on the
conversion to be PDFA compliant. PDFA compliancy does not come for free, and
there is no method as far as I have understood the book and the documentation
that really actively does something on this regard. - you would have to
understand the requirements of PDF/A (PDF Level 1.4, + restrictions that apply)
- no transparency - no encryption - all fonts embedded - and some more
depending on whether you want to be PDF/A-1b or PDF/A-1a compliant. The latter
one is really unlikely to achieve with this functionality. As well, you have to
check for which library you are using, this is for iText 5.x, there are older
distributions, which you can get from sourceforge etc, where as well are
api-docs included. ====================== Best regards, Peter Von:

we at 1T3XT have to MAKE A LIVING as PDF / iText specialists. People like your
boss who use software that "only works for PDF 1.4" and who hire
people who "are newbies in PDF" that try to get a PDF specialist
"to work for free" are bad for business. Can you put yourself in our
place? Do you understand our point of view? I appreciate that you took the time
to try to understand my question. Your efforts and your expertise are a
true asset to iTextSharp, even if your responses are somewhat abrasive. You
sound very unhappy to have spent the time to try to answer my question, and
that was not my intent, as I just wanted a pointer as to what I was doing
wrong. I'm sorry for any inconvenience I caused you, and hope that if I
were to post a question here again that you would simply ignore it and allow
others to answer it, rather than waste your time. While I understand
your point of view, I don't think you are doing yourself any favors on the
business side, as I would be very hesitant to hire you as a consultant based on
the brief but uncomfortable interaction that I've had with you in just the past
day. Still, I am grateful for your assistance, but do wish that it had come
without the derogatory remarks. You may notice that I posted a response
in which I thanked you after having figured out the solution myself, based on
the pointers that you and Leonard provided. I wish you the best of luck.
