I'm Joris Schellekens, a 32-year old software engineer from Belgium.

I'm currently working on pText, a pure python PDF processing library.

As of right now, the revenue made by pText (zero) is not substantial enough to support me, or justify a substantial time-investment from my part. I think the library could be vastly improved if I was able to spend more time on it, or perhaps even hire others to do so.

The main areas of improvement:

  • handling encrypted PDF documents
  • PDF 2.0 spec
  • export from PDF to Word
  • export from PDF to bmp, jpg, other image formats
  • import from Word to PDF
  • OCR
  • redaction
  • ...

If I could earn 2500 a month, I would be able to turn borb in to a full-time business, this would vastly improve the amount of time I could spend on it. That in turn would ensure more features, more examples, and more time for marketing (posting on StackOverflow, Reddit, etc)
