Beginning with version 5.0 the developers have moved to the AGPL to improve their ability to sell commercial licenses. I fully respect the developers' wishes and rights. To assist those desiring to stick with the old license I'm making the final MPL/LGPL version more easily available.
This is a static mirror! iText has moved on to its new license, and it's not my intention to continue to develop this repo as a fork. If you'd like to contribute to iText, that's awesome! I encourage you to!
Here are some options:
- If you are okay with the AGPL, send your contributions upstream.
- If you want to stay with LGPL/MPL then you can maintain your own fork of this repo, or start a brand new project starting from this code base.
Good luck!
I have compiled the project using Java 6. The jars are available under the Downloads tab.
Since iText 4.2.0 is compatible with JDK 4+, you may wish to recompile yourself to get JDK 4/5 compatiblity. To do so:
cd iText-4.2.0/src
ant jar
ant jar.rups
ant jar.rtfBased off of ymasory iText-4.2.0 (https://github.com/ymasory/iText-4.2.0/tree/com.itextpdf) Original iText is a Java PDF library originally dual licensed under MPL/LGPL Licensed. Modifications made by InfluenceHealth (http://installer.medseek.com/itext)
