JPedal Java PDF Library

JPedal is a pure Java PDF library for extracting, manipulating, printing, rendering and viewing PDF files inside Java applications. It ships as a single JAR with no JNI, no native binaries and no third-party dependencies, and runs on any JVM (Java 17 and above), on-premises or in the cloud. IDRsolutions has developed it continuously since 1999, so it copes with malformed and legacy PDFs that break less mature libraries. Most integrations take two or three lines of code.
