I would be happy to be a mentor for PDFBox - not done mentoring before
so if you can get someone more experienced then I'll bow out no
problem. Also I also haven't used PDFBox or even looked at it, but I
am interested in it (use iText alot) - so not sure whether thats a -ve
or not wrt mentoring.

Hi,
We're getting closer to finalizing the PDFBox proposal [1] (current
wiki source included below). I plan to call a vote on the proposal in
a few days, so any questions, comments and suggestions are welcome. If
you're interested, there's also a vacant spot for a third mentor.

Sounds like a good addition to ASF!

I don't not know iText or PDFBox very well, but giving the users multiple

Hi folks,
for creating PDF you have many options and I'm not sure if creating PDF
using a programmatic API is the best appraoch. But where PDFBox really
shines is the fact that you can extract the textual content of a PDF
document thereby making it accessible for fulltext search within the

We don't have built-in PDF generation from pages, which is one of the
more requested features. Apparently many companies like the ability

Ok, so why not generate XSL-FO and use Apache FOP? You get multiple
output formats that way. Only drawback at the moment: No support for
automatically sized column-widths in tables. If you interface directly
