Please add PDF export feature, probably through the ubiquitous iText PDF
library.

It would be great to have PDF exports using iText. I do not have plans to implement
it myself anything before the 2.3 release. I would be available for advice or help if
you wanted to give it a try. You could look at either the excel or csv exports as
examples. Creating custom exports with JMesa is very easy so it is just a matter of
taking the time to do it.

Also, I have never used iText, but I know it is a well supported library and that is
the library I would use with JMesa.

Another option for using iText would be with a project called flying saucer. I don't
know if that is overkill for displaying tables or if it would make it that much easier...
