hmmm... is there a different PDF library you can use? AGPL is another one of those complex licenses... if you can find a different PDF library to export PDF, I suggest you use that?

Hi Prof, previously this library was approved in #111 also with AGPL. This is simply the upgrade version of the same library as IText 5 was deprecated.

I think I didn't pay full attention then! I will approve this as well. Please ensure you adhere to the license terms 👍 As such MIT and *GPL* are kinda compatible, but the *GPL* ones are a bit complex. So do what is necessary to not violate the terms (which you need to figure out 🙂)
