Those who use "import com.lowagie.text..." are no longer supported. Those who use "import com.itextpdf.text..." are the ones you should use. We usually ask a standalone app that reproduces the problem. If we see import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter, we don't look at the example because that means you're using a version of iText that is over two years old.
Exception: the helper classes in the book examples also import com.lowagie classes such as - com.lowagie.database.DatabaseConnection - com.lowagie.filmfestival.Director - ... You can find these examples here: http://itextpdf.com/book/examples.php These are the examples you should use. These examples are explained in the book: http://itextpdf.com/book/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AppSumo Presents a FREE Video for the SourceForge Community by Eric Ries, the creator of the Lean Startup Methodology on "Lean Startup Secrets Revealed."
