Sorry for my naivety on this. What effect will that have on existing user's
using older versions of iText code in there current commercial
projects/products?
What effect will it have using the latest iText (v5 or whatever) in any future
* products/projects? i.e. Will we need to pay for it?

Hello all,
5 months after the release of iText 2.1.7, we're now releasing iText 5.
It took a long time to make this release, and we made a huge jump
in the version number for the following reasons:
1. We've upgraded the license to the AGPL as recommended by the
Free Software Foundation for a

The older versions will no longer be supported, and will eventually die.
Starting a new project with an old iText version is like investing in

I am using iTextSharp 4.1.6 with SignatureRender set to Description.
If PdfSignatureAppearance.Acro6Layers is set to false then siganture
appearance looks Ok.
If Acro6Layers is set to true, then line(s) filled with whitespace
appear before text "Digitally signed by..." Are these empty lines

Was the intent to change the license for the 4.1.6/4.2.0 as well? I notice
that the source on sourceforge now includes the AGPL license rather than the
LGPL/MPL as before. Was that deliberate or accidental? Should we read that

4.1.6/4.2.0 will stay LGPL/MPL forever, it's not possible to change licenses
retroactively. Newer versions will be AGPL.

Version 5 of iTextSharp will also be AGPL.

Where did you
Thanks for that clarification Paulo, it does leave me a little confused
however.
If you pull the 106 revision (or in fact any revision after 98) the
AssemblyInfo still states a version of 4.1.6 but the license in each file is
AGPL as is the License indicated in the Develop tab of whole the project
From version 99 onward is AGPL as written in the log "Change of license to AGPL
and removal of a mail address." and as written in all the files, I don't see
where's the doubt. The next release will be tomorrow and it will be 5.0.0 and
AGPL. With the next release the assembly info will change to
Thank you BUT you keep saying to add as an "OnFocus" event. The problem is
that there is nowhere that shows an example of this being added in the

Would you have an example of the code I would need to add it to the

According to Source Forge v5 among other things has:

oRemoval of Table, Cell, Row, PdfTable, PdfCell.
Hmmm. Maybe these are used a lot.
Are those parts of the new book finished enough to explain the new
alternative methods??? This

There's almost no documentation available about SimpleCell and
SimpleTable, so there's no big loss there.

Mr/Mrs Google is your friend. Hint: Search for "AcroJS.pdf"; then in the PDF,
search for "onFocus".

Actually...we purchased the documentation (your book) and we are appreciative
of all of the work you did and still do, but frankly we aren't JAVA people
and we are scripting tranlsations to coldfusion, then we ask a question and
instead of helpful answers we get involved in a game of "clue".

Webpointz,
Actually, you didn't. If the book contained ALL of the documentation, it would
be huge and much more costly to purchase.
What you perceive as a game of "clue" is simple to explain. You, who presumably
are being paid for your efforts, are asking a many dedicated professionals to

Clues???
You ask for an example, and I'm giving you a fully fledged example:

It's all in SVN. If you get everything from the 4_2_0 tag, you'll be able to
ANT up a local copy of the web site (though it may take a little extra work
hither and yon... getting the JavaDocs built requires that you have a pointer
to a previous version for @since checks for example).

What web site? Is 1t3xt.info down?
I can still see it. Maybe it's a temporary problem.

Hi,
Do you mind making iTextSharp 4.1.7 or 4.2.0 or what ever version of the
