I want to use older version of iTextSharp as it comes with LGPL license. but I don't know the method used in older version to read text from PDF. I have used version 5.5 previously and know the method for that version. here I want specific version info to get text out of PDF.

    Forget about getting text with 4.1.6, that was an area where it did really improve in later versions. – Paulo Soares Jan 04 '17 at 09:21

    As Paulo already hints, the correct answer to your question is: *no*. – Amedee Van Gasse Jan 04 '17 at 09:28
  • Make sure you don't introduce versions older than iText 5 in commercial software offered to customers. See [Can iText 2.1.7 / iTextSharp 4.1.6 or earlier be used commercially?](http://developers.itextpdf.com/question/versions-older-than-5) for more info. Don't expect an answer on your question. I will vote to close it as a problem that no longer exists (because it works in version 5.5). What you're asking is the equivalent of "I can see colors on my color TV, but I now want to switch to an old black&white TV. Why don't I see colors on that TV?" – Bruno Lowagie Jan 04 '17 at 09:28
  • Thank you @poke for referring to that answer. I forgot all about it. I edited it because I am no longer the CEO of the company. I am now the CTO. – Bruno Lowagie Jan 04 '17 at 09:38

    @PauloSoares I want to use 4.1.6 because of LGPL – Sagar Modi Jan 04 '17 at 09:53
