More recently, it has been extended into a general purpose PDF library, capable of filling out forms, moving pages from one PDF to another, and so on. These extensions are often mutually exclusive. One class allows you to fill in forms, while a different and incompatible class makes it possible to copy pages from one PDF to another.

iText It supports PDF's PKI-based signatures, 40-bit and 128-bit encryption, color correction, PDF/X, color management via ICC profiles, and a host of other features.
