Good heads up there Dave. I'm pretty sure that if it's built-in to CF, then it's not in there as iText.jar (as I didn't see it when I dropped mine on my dev machine a few weeks back). After dropping in the jar file, all worked fine (this is an MX 7 install as a J2EE instance). BTW...if MX 7 is using iText under the hood, it's only using the HTML to PDF abilities. iText can do a hell of alot more than just making HTML in to a PDF.....far finer control....lots of bells andf whistles (once you decipher them). The one thing it's missing is decent CF examples (all are of course in Java) Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
