Hi ,

What problems are you facing while using itext....

Hi ,

Check if the itext.jar file downloaded from the website is in .zip format...

If it is in .zip format change it to .jar and then add it to the java build path of the project ...

Sorry Naveen,

I was off for these four days so I could not reply.

For this you need to add two jar files com.sap.lcr.XXX; under the package. I don't remember exactly so just check in your jar files.

Right click on your project-> Select properties ->

Select Java Build path -> select Libraries tab -> Click on Add External JARs and browse and select com.sap.lcr.XXX; files.
