Best Server-side .NET PDF editing library

.net, asp.net, c#, pdf, vb.net

Solution

Have a look at iTextSharp. iTextSharp is a port of the iText , a free Java-Pdf library.

To quote iText:

You can use iText to:

- Serve PDF to a browser

- Generate dynamic documents from XML files or databases

- Use PDF's many interactive features

- Add bookmarks, page numbers, watermarks, etc.

- Split, concatenate, and manipulate PDF pages

- Automate filling out of PDF forms

- Add digital signatures to a PDF file

- And much more...

Problem

What's the best .NET PDF editing library available, and why? It needs to be used on an IIS web-server. Specifically, I need to edit a PDF which was generated by reporting services. Factors I'm interested in: - Speed - Memory Consumption - Price - Quality of documentation - Library stability - Size of library - Whatever else you think is important
