iText 7 Core 7.0.2

Available on NuGet (.NET) and on Maven Central (Java).

We have released a minor update to our iText 7 platform, version 7.0.2. In this maintenance release, we will support some upcoming product launches (stay tuned!) as well as bugfixes and performance improvements. Beyond these updates, we have also improved:

• font support with FontProvider/FontSelector
• advanced page range definition, contributed by GitHub user @NayoLyon (thanks!)
• auto layout and fixed layout for tables, scaled column widths have been removed
• Table constructors: combine percent and point column widths

Beyond these improvements, we have also included the following in our latest release:

iText 7 License Key 2.0.3

Available on NuGet (.NET) and on iText's Artifactory server (Java).

There was an issue with licenses not loading on Java for IBM AIX systems. This has been resolved in 2.0.3. Customers on these systems should upgrade to the new license key library. You can upgrade by adjusting the version in your pom.xml or gradle file to 2.0.3 or by downloading the 2.0.3 version from our Artifactory and adding it to your classpath (https://repo.itextsupport.com/webapp/#/artifacts/browse/simple/General/releases/com/itextpdf/itext-licensekey/2.0.3)

• improved RTL support
• bugfixes and performance improvements

iText 7 pdfHTML 1.0.0

Available on NuGet (.NET) and on iText's Artifactory server (Java).

• New HTML to PDF conversion add-on
• Similar to iText 5's XMLWorker, but rewritten from scratch
• Improved performance and reliability, even when using invalid HTML
• Support RTL and complex scripts out of the box without additional effort
• Support @media, initial support for @page rules
• Support base64-encoded images

If you're using Maven as your build tool for Java, add the following XML snippet to your pom.xml. Maven will then do all the heavy lifting for you and download the required modules from the Maven Central Repository.

<dependencies>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.itextpdf</groupId>
    <artifactId>itext7-core</artifactId>
    <version>7.0.2</version>
    <type>pom</type>
  </dependency>
</dependencies>

Because the Java add-ons and the license key library are closed-source, they are not available on the Maven Central Repository. You can get them from the iText Artifactory server. You can add this server as an additional repository in the repositories section of your pom.xml or settings.xml, as described in the Maven documentation. Maven will then automatically query this repository for the add-on jar files.

<repositories>
  <repository>
    <id>itext</id>
    <name>iText Repository - releases</name>
    <url>https://repo.itextsupport.com/releases</url>
  </repository>
</repositories>

After this, you can add the add-on modules to your pom.xml:

<dependencies>
  <!-- pdfCalligraph -->
  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.itextpdf</groupId>
    <artifactId>typography</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.2</version>
  </dependency>
  <!-- pdfHTML -->
  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.itextpdf</groupId>
    <artifactId>html2pdf</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0</version>
  </dependency>
  <!-- iText 7 License Key Library -->
  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.itextpdf</groupId>
    <artifactId>itext-licensekey</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.3</version>
  </dependency>
</dependencies>
