The program, pdftk, is a c++ program that uses gcj's CNI (not JNI) feature to call java classes. Here is some background information on CNI: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcj/About-CNI.html In principle you would only need to provide CNI headers for the itext classes (see gcjh) and a shared library build from the itext classes or jar file (see gcj). But it depends a bit on coordinating with the pdftk packager. Currently the pdftk build seems to just bundle all of itext and compile it into one big static library.
