OpenPDF is a free Java library for creating and editing PDF files with the Mozilla Public License and the GNU Library General Public License free software license. It is a fork of iText, created because the license of iText was changed from LGPL / MPL to a dual AGPL and proprietary license in order for the original authors to sell a proprietary version of the software.[2]

Version 3.0.0 was released August 17, 2025. This version changed the Java package name to org.openpdf, and also includes new modules for HTML to PDF, and PDF rendering.
