Inconsistent information about minimal Java version required #64

Closed vlcinsky closed 2 years ago

Project web and documentation are not consistent with regards to required Java version. Sometime it talks about version 6, sometime about version 8.

On project home page:

Launching

If you don't use windows installer, which already includes Java, you'll need a Java Runtime Environment in version 6 and newer.

In PDF docs JSignPdf Quick Start Guide:

Prerequisites Java If you want to use JSignPdf, and you don’t install it on Windows using the installation program, you will need Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 8 or newer. If you don’t have it, you can download it freely from web pages, for instance

and in section Keystore it talks about about version 6

Thanks for the report. Java 8 is the correct one. The info should be fixed now on the project web.
