Hi, I'm getting startup errors for seam-pdf with 2.0.1.GA:

I've checked the iText jar and com.lowagie.text.Font is not present.

It is most certainly there. Can you show a jar tvf itext.jar?

[giannidoe.gdoe6545.yahoo.it]

My apologies, it most certainly is there.

Any idea why I'm getting this error though?

Thanks,
Gianni

Is the project started with JBoss Tools or seam-gen? WAR or EAR? Hot or not-deployment?

It was my temporary blindness not finding the Font class that threw me, issue sorted now but too embarrassing to recount. Thanks
