itext-rs

Rust bindings to the Java library iText-PDF version 9.2.

Purpose

Generating PDFs in Rust is at the early stages. Java's PDF world is pretty far along. This library allows a Rust program to create PDFs using iText PDF.

Compiling

If the bundled feature is enabled:

• The JVM should be installed.
• The environmental variable JAVA_HOME should be set.

Usage

If the bundled feature is enabled:
When using JNI's invocation API, the JAR file embedded in this crate should be added to the classpath:

1. Save the jarfile (const bundle::DEPENDENCIES) to disk
2. Add the option -Djava.class.path=<PATH TO JARFILE> to the JVM's start parameters.

If the bundled feature is not enabled, you are responsible for providing the itext-pdf libraries to the JVM.
