Not really deliberated. iText started 10 years ago when a gigabyte was a lot 
bigger than it is now. 2G looked enough then and now nobody has the time to 
change the code to support it. I also doubt that there's a need for it safe for 
a couple of people (Gylfi included).

  Don't know about the Java version of iText, but last time I checked, 
iTextSharp did not support generating PDF files greater than 2 GB and my 
impression from Paulo was that this was deliberate and that adding that support 
was not being planned.

  PDF supports files that are hundreds/thousands of pedabytes(!) in size.   
iText, however, may be limited to the original 10 gigabyte limitation.

         I have a querry regarding the usage of iText jars. 

         What is the maximum size in a file, that it can be converted to the 
PDF format.

         

         Please respond as soon as possible.
