ODT->PDF Tabbing and iText

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I am looking into xdocreport to replace a Windows process which has an OO 
install and performs ODT -> PDF conversions.  We have a large number of ODT 
documents which contain tabs.

I read the xdocreport Wiki on the iText issue with Tabs and see this as a 
non-starter for moving to xdocreport for odt conversions.  Is there a 
work-around for this issue other than removing the tabs from the odts?

Also, will xdocreport be migrating to the latest version of iText?
We currently use iText 5+ and I had to include iText 2.1.7 in my same project 
(at the end of the classpath) in order for xdocreport to work.

I also read this on iText:  http://itextpdf.com/sandbox/objects/Tabs
and was wondering if the newer version of iText now would support tabbing?

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi,

we migrated to github (https://github.com/opensagres/xdocreport) please report 
new issue there.

Starting from version 1.0.5 we provide a iText5 extension.

http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Cfr.opensagres.xdocreport%7Cfr.opensag
res.xdocreport.itext5.extension%7C1.0.5%7Cjar
http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Cfr.opensagres.xdocreport%7Corg.apache
.poi.xwpf.converter.pdf.itext5%7C1.0.5%7Cjar

you should be able to replace you xdocreport itext jars with those provided is 
links.

We don't provide any iText 5 demo because of licensing issue with this version 
(AGPL).

Thank you for using xdocreport and reporting issues
