The version you tried to install is not compatible with Xamarin. You'll have to install the Xamarin port of the library. It is based on the version 4.1.6 and hence LGPL licensed, which is way more permissive than the Affero GPL the more current versions of iTextSharp are licensed under. Anyway, it's not maintained. On NuGet there is exactly one version (0.1.0) which has been uploaded about three years ago. If it suffices, fine, but I'd test thoroughly (at least the features you need).

It is available from Nuget (see here) or Bitbucket (here).

FWIW, there is a port of PdfSharp for Xamarin, too (see here), but it does not seem as if it's maintained, too.

  • So, what you suggest in this regards.Actually I need that package to create some report in pdf format in my mobile application. – Subrata Mitra Apr 23 '18 at 09:27
  • Actually I don't know. I installed Xam.iTextSharpLGPL successfully in an iOS project. There are no dependencies towards BouncyCastle for me. – Paul Kertscher Apr 23 '18 at 10:13
  • Thank you sir for your valuable time....I don't know this package will serve my purpose or not but I should try...... – Subrata Mitra Apr 23 '18 at 10:47

You could refer to my answer: Install itext7 in Xamarin

iText Software has published a Xamarin port of iText 7, which will supported .NET Standard 1.6 and above.

In your Xamarin Forms project, you could install the itext7 nuget package instead.
