Hey all
I'm new to java and I need to use java and itext for my class project.I
installed libitext-java version 1.4.5-3 in debian using apt.When i try to
compile the HelloWorld program

import java.io.*;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.*;
import com.lowagie.text.*;
 public class HelloWorldPDF
   {
    public static void main(String arg[])throws Exception
      {
       Document document=new Document();
       PdfWriter.getInstance(document,new FileOutputStream("hello.pdf"));
      document.open();
      document.add(new Paragraph("Hello Pdf"));
      document.close();
      }
}

I get this error
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
com/lowagie/text/Element
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.lowagie.text.Element
    at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:200)
