Can anyone suggest me a a nice book or API document for iTextSharp , I have been struggling while understanding the lib and have resorted to a hit and try methodology which is extremely irritating and time consuming.

    This is the best API guide I can find: https://afterlogic.com/mailbee-net/docs-itextsharp/html/72996b63-c77f-08f8-7de9-c32122d8b8df.htm – Silent Sojourner May 02 '18 at 14:57
  • Yeah, that link was good -- a little bit prettier one back.. https://afterlogic.com/mailbee-net/docs-itextsharp/ – bobwki May 19 '18 at 17:13
  • @SilentSojourner Thank you so much, exactly what I was looking for. – evry1falls Jul 13 '21 at 11:05
  • @bobwki Not sure about that site - I'm struggling to find information on a very basic thing, namely units of measurement. – Stewart Aug 23 '23 at 11:14

Have a look at the series of articles about iTextSharp http://www.mikesdotnetting.com/Article/80/Create-PDFs-in-ASP.NET-getting-started-with-iTextSharp

    I found the documentation from iText5 to be helpful. Even if it isn't the same version it does provide some very helpful examples. https://developers.itextpdf.com/examples/itext5-building-blocks – bluedot Oct 11 '18 at 18:34
  • @bluedot it gives me access denied. Any suggestions ? – evry1falls Jul 13 '21 at 11:04

    @evry1falls, seems iText5 is end of life and has been replaced by iText7. There is still some accessible documentation at https://kb.itextpdf.com/home/it5kb/examples and https://itextpdf.com/en/resources/api-documentation/itext-5-java – bluedot Jul 22 '21 at 08:08
  • @bluedot I don't think my task that requires iText5 would extend beyond the iText5 life. Thank you though. – evry1falls Sep 02 '21 at 13:18
