Excellent tutorial, reference on a very useful software package
If you plan to use iText, this book indespensible, and iText is a very powerful, flexible, yet simple Java library for managing PDF.
The examples in the book are crisper and not domain specific, so are much more amenable to use than in the typical software tutorial.
book not match new release at the beginning
I look at the first chapter and first example. It doesn't work. Also you can not download examples in one zip file. Those are in contradiction with the book instructions. pg. 11 and pg 12. Author should provide error list for this book, or it is going to be lose values quickly.
For good part, itext is a good tool. Better download earlier version.
This is one of the best technique books I have ever read
This is a best book I have ever seen. It has every details about how to use the iText. It's very clear in every technical aspects. iText is also a great API for Java programmer. It's also really easy to learn. I love iText.
I love this book. I strongly recommand this book.
Outstanding book. Valuable for every type of iText development.
This is a great book for people developing or maintaining applications using iText. It covers every corner-case I've run into, typically offering various options on how to solve a problem. The writing is concise, with easily approachable chapters and examples.
Good book
This is nice book, though most of the contents can be found online (I believe it is linked from the author's website). I have created some complex PDF files using iText following the examples on the book and online tutorials. This is the book from iText creator, surely it worth a 5 starts.
