XMLMill for Java

• Complete the Acrofields of an existing PDF document (acting as 'template') and write the result into a new document.
• Stamp the page(s) of any existing PDF document using the regular ml: elements (this means adding new data on the document page(s)) and write the result into a new document.
• Complete the Acrofields and stamp the page(s) of an existing PDF document (acting as template) and write the result into a new document.
• XMLMill InterActive has a new user-interface, enhancing greatly the user-experience.
• The logging mechanism has been changed to include Apache's commons-logging-1.1 functionality instead of Log4j (although Log4j can still be used).
• The DPI (dots per inch) of each image is now read from the image file itself (if applicable) instead of a fixed 96 DPI, leading to smaller (or bigger) image representation in the PDF document compared with the image itself.
• An entry has been added in the config.xml file regarding the use of the DPI settings for backwards compatibility (facilitating the upgrade to this version).
• An entry has been added in the config.xml file regarding preloading 'template' documents so completing Acrofields or stamping existing documents is extremely fast (and minimizing memory usage).
• Implementation of the break-before = ‘column’ attribute/value pair.
• Implementation of the break-after = ‘column’ attribute/value pair.
• An image can be rotated in a table-cell.
• Behavioral change: The calculation of the width or height has been changed, eliminating a wrong calculation if the width or height of the image was larger than the parent's content-area.
• Behavioral change: An empty ml:textbox or ml:table-cell will no longer have an implicit space character added to it.
• The loglevels ALL and OFF when using XMLMill in Batch were suppressed.
• Removal of deprecated classes: PDXLogger, PDXLogFile, PDELogFile, PDXTransform.
• Following class has been renamed: PDXTransformErrorHandler has become JAXPErrorHandler.
• Bug fixes.
