[swtchart-dev] GSoC 2019 : Extending the export options project

[Sanatt Abrol <sanatt.abrol.in@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone, I hope you are doing well. We need to add new export options like .pdf,  .svg etc.

I was doing some research over this and found iText and Apache PDFBox as libraries we can use to export our 'imageData'.

iText has both free and commercial license which I doubt we can use in our case. Apache PDFBox however is open-source.

Is it possible to use Apache PDFBox for our project? 

If not, then I suppose we are required to write our own 'pdf exporter' which is something I think the whole Eclipse community can benefit from (if something like this is not already written by the community).

Please let me know what you think :)

Regards, 

Sanatt
