Remove watermark "DEMO" appearing in PDF background


While Open Reports as pdf format i'm getting watermark as "DEMO" in background. I'm using iText 2.1.4

How to remove this watermark? It's shown in this image

Solution

  • Official versions of iText (either free or paid) NEVER added a watermark to files generated with the lib. This could be added either by your own code, or by a wrapper if you don't use iText directly.

    Also note you are using a very old version of iText, almost 5 years old. This version (and in fact, any version prior to 5.x) presents legal and technical issues. If possible, an upgrade would be best.
