iTextSharp Valid License Not working

Question

I'm trying to use iTextSharp with valid license obtained for commercial purpose. But the document producer line is still showing "AGPL version".

Steps Followed:

1. Installed iText 7 License Key (dll version 2.0.2.0) and iTextSharp (dll version 5.5.10.0) through Nuget

2. Loaded the license XML file before generating the PDF.

   LicenseKey.LoadLicenseFile(path\iTextkey.xml);
   

After loading the license file, I'm able to see the name, company , key etc. details in LicenseKey.GetLicenseeInfo().

PDF Producer still shows iText Group NV (AGPL-version) instead of Licensed.

Any suggestions on why it is not working?

Answer 1

You are mixing the wrong versions of iText and the License Key library.

• iText 5 for .NET (aka iTextSharp) requires License Key library 1.0.4. Available only on the iText website.
• iText 7 for .NET requires License Key library 2.0.2. Available on NuGet and on the iText website.
