out every day, so no prevention program can catch 100% of them. For your own safety, please:
Re-scan downloaded files using your personal virus checker before using it.
NEVER, EVER run compiled files (.exe's, .ocx's, .dll's etc.)--only run source code.

Sorry guy, but atm this code is too poor and bugged for a serious test... We all wait for some more implementations.. Anyway, thank you (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Can't read test.pdf with Acrobat Reader 5. Errors - "1. Problem reading document(14)--2. Can't find Font in Resource Dictionary - use Helvetica instead." (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
This class is too slow. It's taking a lot of time to insert JPG image and create PDF file. How can this be made faster? Commercial Libraries to create PDF are just too fast than this code. Nevertheless, this code is excellent for someone who wants to know how to write PDF from the scratch and also good to produce Reports in PDF. I don't see any other use of this code right now because of its slow speed. Can you improve on it? (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
