iText can create PDFs, but it does not have the ability to render (or
display) them.

Check out GhostScript. There are both free and more up-to-date
commercial versions of it. To get you started, here's a line from a
shell script I use for converting a single PDF to PNG.

gs -q -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -r600 -dFirstPage=$I \
 -dLastPage=$I -sDEVICE=png16m -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 \
 -sOutputFile="$OUT" "$1"
