Write a simple Servlet that doesn't involve iText,
but that tries to use some classes  from BouncyCastle.
Do you get the same error?
Then you've put the jars on the wrong place.

Another possibility:
maybe you're using jars (e.g. the iText jar) compiled
with a higher Java version. Incompatible Java versions
can lead to exceptions that say a class can't be found.

Another possibility:
you have more than one jar of the same library but with
a different version in your CLASSPATH.

In any case: it works on your test server, so it's not
an iText problem, but a configuration error. Configuration
error can best be solved by the person who actually has
access to the system. Solving configuration errors remotely
without being able to look at the system is difficult.
