Quarkus iText/OpenPDF

Overview

A Quarkus extension that lets you utilize OpenPDF or iText or to create and manipulate PDFs on the fly.

Note

The main purpose of this extension is to make iText/OpenPDF work in a native executable built with GraalVM/Mandrel.

Important

Consider using OpenPDF first, as it is modern and supports encrypted PDFs. Only resort to the legacy iText version if OpenPDF doesn't meet your needs.

Versioning

There are multiple versions available please check which one for your Quarkus release version.
