<B>Buying such a license is mandatory as soon as you develop commercial activities distributing the iText software inside your product</B> or deploying it on a network <I>without disclosing the source code of your own applications under the AGPL license</I>. These activities include: offering paid services to customers as an ASP, serving PDFs on the fly in the cloud or in a web application, <B>shipping iText with a closed source product.</B><BR>

In fact, I contacted with them via email and I was told that we needed to buy a license if we were going to deploy the DLL with a product. (That was too expensive for us to build a product that was just for a single client).

The list of third part materials includes iText, but in the their description of the license of iText they says that is GPL, so perhaps they are using a pre-2010 version. In such case you can include pdftk for commercial use without buying a license.<BR>
