Book Reviews of iText in Action: Creating and Manipulating PDF
Book Review: book not match new release at the beginning
Summary: 2 Stars
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.
Summary of iText in Action: Creating and Manipulating PDF
Imagine a publisher who wants to "stamp" his ebooks on the fly with the name of the buyer (to discourage sharing). Such a publisher would (and we know one who does) use iText for the task. Developers looking to enhance web- and other applications with dynamic PDF document generation and/or manipulation will find this book unique in content and readability. Based on ongoing examples that encourage learning "in action," they will finally understand PDF and learn how to build applications that produce professional, high-quality PDF documents. While the basic functionality of iText is easy to acquire, this book lowers the learning curve for more advanced functionality. It explains how to use iText to create/manipulate PDF documents on-the-fly in one or more of the following situations:
All the examples are written in Java, but they can be easily adapted to .NET by developers using one of the .NET ports: iTextSharp (C#) or iText.NET (#J). While iText is a free Java library and the examples are written from the point of view of the Java developer, nine out of ten examples can be run by .NET developers with only minimal changes.
