OpenPDF 2.2.0 Released!

We’re excited to announce the release of OpenPDF 2.2.0, a new milestone in our ongoing mission to build a modern, fully open-source PDF library for Java.

We’ve added a brand new module: openpdf-renderer.

This module integrates the openpdf-renderer engine into OpenPDF, enabling:

• High-quality PDF rendering to images
• Fast page previews and thumbnails
• Support for converting PDF pages to BufferedImage for use in Java applications

It’s perfect for developers who need visual previews of PDFs in desktop or server-side applications.

We are excited to announce the release of OpenPDF 2.1.0, which marks a major step forward for the project.

• Java 21 required: OpenPDF 2.1.0 now targets Java 21 LTS and benefits from its modern features and performance improvements. Java 21 was released in 2023.

• New Kotlin module: Build PDFs more easily using idiomatic Kotlin APIs and a DSL-inspired builder interface.

• Added openpdf-html module: A maintained fork of Flying Saucer for converting HTML to PDF, now part of the OpenPDF project. The goal is to improve HTML5 and modern CSS support.

• Deprecated HtmlParser: We encourage migrating to openpdf-html for improved HTML rendering.

• Updated dependencies.
