Error while creating pdf using iTextsharp.dll

Question

Error Occurs while running C# project, which uses itextsharp.dll to genereate pdf file

The content of error:

"Could not load file or assembly 'itextsharp, Version=5.4.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=*****or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference'

Can anyone help me?

Have you added the iTextsharp dll in the namespace ? If yes then is it giving error line there ? — Jibran Khan, May 24 '13 at 06:43
yes i added dll to reference and also included that namespace too. — Syed Mohamed, May 24 '13 at 13:33
so exactly where you are getting the error ? In consuming the classes from dll or in the namespace addition ? — Jibran Khan, May 24 '13 at 13:34
As googled its seen to be dll not loaded properly. Error raised at program.cs page, in 'Application.Run(new Form1());' — Syed Mohamed, May 24 '13 at 13:48

Check first, whether the referenced version in your solution matches 5.4.1.0. You could try to select the reference in the project References folder and set "Specific Version" to false.

For further hints, see The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference

you have to paste the following 4 files

 itextsharp.dll,
 itextsharp.pdfa.dll,
 itextsharp.xml,
 itextsharp.xtra.dll

in current folder, from where you are executing your .exe file.
