iText Description

A library that allows you to create and manipulate PDF documents

iText is a library that allows you to create and manipulate PDF documents. It enables developers looking to enhance web- and other applications with dynamic PDF document generation and/or manipulation.

Developers can use iText to:

* Serve PDF to a browser
* Generate dynamic documents from XML files or databases
* Use PDF's many interactive features
* Add bookmarks, page numbers, watermarks, etc.
* Split, concatenate, and manipulate PDF pages
* Automate filling out of PDF forms
* Add digital signatures to a PDF file

iText is a PDF library

iText is an API that was developed to allow developers to do the following (and much more):

* Generate documents and reports based on data from an XML file or a database
* Create maps and books, exploiting numerous interactive features available in PDF
* Add bookmarks, page numbers, watermarks, and other features to existing PDF documents
* Split or concatenate pages from existing PDF files
* Fill out interactive forms
* Serve dynamically generated or manipulated PDF documents to a web browser

iText is not an end-user tool. You have to build iText into your own applications so that you can automate the PDF creation and manipulation process.

When to use iText?

Typically, iText is used in projects that have one of the following requirements:

* The content isn't available in advance: it's calculated based on user input or real-time database information.
* The PDF files can't be produced manually due to the massive volume of content: a large number of pages or documents.
* Documents need to be created in unattended mode, in a batch process.
* The content needs to be customized or personalized; for instance, the name of the end user has to be stamped on a number of pages.

Often you'll encounter these requirements in web applications, where content needs to be served dynamically to a browser. Normally, you'd serve this information in the form of HTML, but for some documents, PDF is preferred over HTML for better printing quality, for identical presentation on a variety of platforms, for security reasons, or to reduce the file size.
