Do you specifically need the latest version of iText? The earlier versions are pretty good as well ( and with LGPL licence). I'm using iText 2.1.7 in this example project (via transitive dependency).

cheers,
matti

We wanted to throw out itext because the license is not compatible with the licensing for our project.
We would have to check if LGPL is compatible and how to use an older version with the current addon.
