Hey guys,

I am new to iText and need to use it in a project. The reason why I am using iText is that a part of my project is about pdf operations that must be done as fast as possible.

So, are there any advices to use iText in a fast manner? For instance, based on my knowledge of assembly programming, I guess *direct contact*(using *PdfContentByte*) should be one thing to speed up the program.
It's "direct content" not "direct content", and no, that isn't necessarily a way to speed up the program. iText is the most versatile PDF library you'll find: there's always more than one way to achieve what you need. The "best way" however depends entirely on "what you want to do."

Using direct content is the fastest way to draw a map on a canvas, but if you want to fill out a form, maybe using AcroFields is faster, or if you want to concatenate documents, then PdfCopy is faster than PdfSmartCopy, but the PDF risks being bloated (as opposed to when you use PdfSmartCopy).

In short: your question is of a too general nature. You'll have to clarify if you want a more specific answer.
