Originally posted by **Tarek-Hasan** March 25, 2023 Hey, first thanks for your project. I noticed you are using iTextSharp PDF library which is deprecated, and only bug fixes are issued since 2016. As all of their development effort has been moved to iText7. So instead of using a long abandoned project which lacks newer features, if you are interested, you can look into few well maintained C# pdf libraries I found. [QuestPDF](https://github.com/QuestPDF/QuestPDF) [PdfSharpCore](https://github.com/ststeiger/PdfSharpCore) [PDFjet](https://github.com/edragoev1/pdfjet) - [Website](https://pdfjet.com/) [QPdfNet](https://github.com/Sicos1977/QPdfNet) - C# wrapper for qpdf [PdfPig](https://github.com/UglyToad/PdfPig) - C# port of PDFBox [Haru PDF Library](https://github.com/libharu/libharu) - C# wrapper included
