Doxia iText backend

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Maven Doxia has a PDF backend implemented using iText.

There are some problems with iText backend:

 * iText generated PDFs have different problems (for example
   broken links)

 * iText upstream discontinued XML to PDF functionalities
   so these problems won't be fixed

 * Doxia upstream announced that iText backend will likely
   be removed in future versions of Doxia

Because of the above reasons I am going to remove iText backends from
Maven Doxia (packages maven-doxia and maven-doxia-sitetools)
in Fedora 19 and later.

Note that Doxia has a second PDF backend, implemented using Apache FOP.
This means that Doxia will continue to support PDF generation, but
using a different backend.
