If you can't get the image bytes programmatically, then how do you expect iText to be able to do that? iText also needs to use program code, there's no iText employee that manually fills out the form for you whenever you post such a request, is there?
Please take another look at your problem: it's not related to iTextSharp whatsover. You need to write some code using a class that is equivalent to URLConnection. I have no idea what you mean by "Forms Authentication". Are you saying that an HTML form is presented and that you need to POST a username and password? In that case, you need to create a POST connection (that's feasible with URLConnection in Java). If you mean to say something else when you mention "Forms Authentication", then you're asking the wrong person. In any case: I fail to see how this question is related to iText(Sharp). It's off-topic here. All you need to do, is to get image bytes from a protected site. Please explain why you think this involves iTextSharp. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!
