The Big Faceless Java PDF Library is a Java class library for creating PDF documents. The Extended Edition of Big Faceless Java PDF Library offers the ability to create and edit AcroForms, PDFs answer to the HTML form.

Like HTML forms, PDF forms can contain text boxes, radio buttons, and can call JavaScript functions. The Extended Edition also includes a PDF reader for importing and editing, along with FDF support and verification for Digital Signatures.
Both variations offer full Unicode support, encryption, embedded TrueType and Type1 fonts, barcodes, hyperlinks, spot and calibrated color. Advanced text layout engine enables complex HTML styles. It is small, fast, easy to use, and 100% pure Java.

BFO's PDF Library provides unparalleled implementation flexibility and reliability for the developer. It's scalable, thread-safe and extremely fast, having been honed over the years, and runs on any Java platform from the humble PC up to Mainframes.

The API has been designed so you don't need to know the PDF specification in order to create PDF's. We hide as much of the gory details as possible but still give you almost complete control over the PDF itself. Where possible standard Java classes are reused - for example the pages are stored in a java.util.List, which can be manipulated any way you like (so moving pages from one document to another is a breeze). This means an API which is smaller and easier to remember.

Major Features:

1. Transparent Unicode support - create documents in Arabic, Russian or Japanese as easily as English.
2. TrueType and Type1 fonts, with subsetting for smaller files. Great for OCR
3. PDF Encryption, for password-protected documents (40 and 128 bit RC4 or AES)
4. Embed JPEG, PNG, GIF, TIFF or java.awt.Image images, or add Barcodes directly to the PDF.
5. Use Spot colors, calibrated ICC profiles and other advanced colorspace
6. Add HTML-style Hyperlinks to text or images
7. Process 1000+ words a second with kerning, ligatures, justification and "curly quotes" for legibility.
8. Simplify complex document creation by defining and applying "Styles"
9. Full support for PDF features like bookmarks, compression and document meta-information
10. Non-linear creation of documents - pages can be created and edited in any order
11. PDF Library Extended Edition
    • The extended edition of the Java PDF Library offers additional features:
    • Load and edit existing PDF documents, as templates or merge with others
    • Create and edit interactive Forms, or "AcroForm"
    • Digitally sign documents, or verify existing digital signatures
12. Java PDF Viewer
    • On top of the Extended edition, the Viewer Extension can be used to display PDFs:
    • Swing component for displaying PDF documents
    • Convert PDF to TIFF (or any other bitmap format)
    • Extract and index text and images from PDF documents, including integration with Apache Lucene
    • Print PDF documents, including support for annotations and other PDF features not supported by Java 1.5 printing.
    • Pre-flight new or existing PDFs against PDF/X-1a, PDF/X-3 or PDF/A-1b.

Enhancements:

• All BFO warning (and debug, if enabled) messages are now logged using log4j if available, or java.util.logging.* if not.
• Large synchronization audit fixed some issues when reading from one PDF in multiple threads, particularly when using the viewer.
• Fixed problem that could result in corruption when repeatedly saving a PDF containing compressed XRef tables and multiple revisions.
• Modified AnnotationStamp so Acrobat correctly handles custom stamps, and added some new types of standard stamp.
• Added FDF.getXFDF() method, for exporting XFDF from a PDF, and added support for this to the Viewer. Fixed FDF export, broken some releases ago.
• More PDF/A related fixes, and added a number of new OutputProfile.Features.
• Fixed RichText content in text fields
• Added subsetting for CFF fonts
• Fixed error with some Windows JDKs when rasterizing JPEG images
• Fixed unusual cases of Linear & Radial shading, added preliminary support for Coons & Tensor-Product Patch shading (Type 6 & 7).
• Fixed blending, broken in previous release and resulting in opaque highlight annotations.
• Correctly handle masked images where the mask and image are different sizes, as created by Luratech products.
• Added PageExtractor.Image.getUniqueId(), to identify extracted images.
• Added PageExtractor.Image.getMetaData() and Text.getFontMetaData(), to return any embedded XMP MetaData for those items in the PDF.
• Fixed long-standing bug in CCITT.G3 2D encoding now rarely seen in very old TIFF images.
• Further fixes to handle some types of corrupt PDF
• Viewer: Page Up/Page Down/Home and End keys navigate correctly through the PDF via the Viewport ActionMap. Standard ScrollBar keybindings are overridden, previous KeyListener approach didnt work reliably and was removed.
• Viewer: Fixed missing glyphs in some fonts after a search was run.
• Viewer: PDFTool (the class run by "java -jar bfopdf.jar") has more options.
• Viewer: Stamps no longer slowly grow when clicked on due to rounding error
• Viewer: Calling DocumentPanel.redraw(page) will work as expected.
• Viewer: Dont allow JavaScript to be run on the console if no PDF is loaded
• Viewer: Fixed page jump when zoom level is changed in Column view
• Viewer: Dont fail under 1.6 when saving PDFs to filenames containing an invalid regex backreference.
• Viewer: Improved display under OS X, including addition of a Dock Icon.
• Viewer: Added keyboard shortcuts to "Open Recent" menu.
• Viewer: Thumbnail panel now scrolls to follow the current page, and renders more reliably.
