Hey
Oh, that depends on what you what to do with it. Get a byte array and use
that to make a PdfReader (from itext), and then use that to get a writer,
like PdfCopy or PdfStamp. You can use PdfStamp to flatten forms.

If you need your PDFs to be on different OSs, it won't make a
difference whether you store them in a database or just somewhere on
disk. I mean, storing it in a database is not going to get you 'fast'.
Just store it on disk if you want fast. If you need to manage the
files, put the names of the files in the database. But if you really
want to put the whole file in a database, mySQL can do that and is free.
Version 1.4 is pretty good.
Here's where to get mySQL 1.4:

Here's info about binary datatype:

Hi
I think that depends on the database. I think Oracle and newer versions
of mySQL allow you to store binary data. So you could put PDFs in the
database as binary data and then use a web application to connect to it
and get the PDF.
But I don't think you should bog down the database with binary data if
you
could just have them on the hard drive of your server. Maybe put the
name
of the file in the database instead?
