My personal taste is: use Java, but that should be irrelevant to you. Your criterion should be: what is the standard at the company I work for. If they're a company with plenty of knowledge about C# and no support (no helpdesk) for Java, learn more about C# and iTextSharp! One important advise though: don't start learning iTextSharp until AFTER you master C#. (Or don't start learning iText until AFTER you master Java.) Being a good programmer takes time, and you should do it step by step. iText(Sharp) and PDF are difficult enough as it is. You need sufficient knowledge about Java (or C#) before reading "iText in Action". That is: unless you master another language such as C++ (in which case, you have sufficient mileage to understand the book). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
