### **PLEASE NOTE: iTextSharp is EOL, and has been replaced by [iText 7][itext7]. Only security fixes will be added**
 
We HIGHLY recommend customers use iText 7 for new projects, and to consider moving existing projects from iTextSharp to iText 7 to benefit from the many improvements such as:
 
- HTML to PDF (PDF/UA) conversion
- PDF Redaction
- SVG support
- Better language support: Indic, Thai, Khmer, Arabic, Hebrew. (Close-source addon)
- PDF Debugging for your IDE
- Data Extraction
- Better continued support and bugfixes
- More modular, extensible handling of your document workflow
- Extra practical add-ons
- Encryption, hashing & digital signatures


### [iTextSharp][itext] consists of several dlls.

The main release contains:
- ```itextsharp.dll```: the core library
- ```itextsharp.xtra.dll```: extra functionality (PDF 2!)
- ```itextsharp.pdfa.dll```: PDF/A-related functionality
- ```itextsharp.xmlworker.dll```: XML (and HTML) functionality
