iText.NET
Free PDF Library for .NET Framework
What's iText .NET
iText, Java-PDF library,
is developed by Mr. Bruno Lowagie, Mr. Paulo Soares and co-workes. This
library is available under MPL/LGPL
license. iText .NET is iText poring on .NET Framework by J#.
In addition,
GNU Classpath,
JUnit, and
Xerces are ported on the way.
Refer iText.NET as an example of transferring Java to .NET.
There are several iText port available. Try iTextSharp and original iText
on IKVM along with iText.NET. I recommend you to use iTextSharp for a
new .NET project. I'm also using iTextSharp.
Tutorial
Excellent tutorials for using iText are described in iText web site.
