I don't know what that means. My concerns would be things like: is it
stable, does it perform well, support the features people need like
document signing, display and print color and fonts and other content
as the document creator intended, etc. It's important that there be
free software that can at least create, display and print PDF/A, and
ideally it should be able to create, display, modify, and print any
ISO 32000 / PDF spec 1.7 document. I really doesn't understand the
relevance of libraries in the evaluation metric.
