Licensors of the world's most popular
programmable PDF creation software

iText Software is regularly discussed in the press, both consumer and technical:

iText is covered in several books:

And iText is blogged about by technology leaders:

  • James Gosling, the inventor of Java: "I just checked in yet another new version of Huckster, the simple presentation tool that I use. The major new feature is the ability to export PDF - which I need on non-mac platforms. It was simple to do, thanks to the sweet PDF generation capabilities of the iText library. It's well documented on the website, and even better in the book."
  • Bob Lee, Google, principal designer of the Google Web Toolkit, in successive tweets (posts) on Twitter: " 1) "Can't find an open source Java PDF page splitter (to split one big file into a file per page). Guess I'll have to write my own." 2) "iText might actually work. I'll give it a shot. I didn't realize it could manipulate existing PDFs." 3) "iText seems to be perfect. It even keeps a low memory footprint."

From the Press

"iText is not only the most comprehensive PDF library available, it's one of the best written and best documented software products I've seen in more than 15 years of judging tools."

"I've just used iTextSharp on a project at work and it proved to be very easy to use[...] I got it working in about 30 minutes from download to first test. Printing a block of text without formatting only took the code below to work. This was for a user clicking a link and getting the service agreement text, which was dynamically generated, and then sending it to the user to download.The website has examples on doing more complicated formatting, as well."
