iTextSharp is a good tool, but you can also try other commercial tools for free trial.Such as PDF component[^]. After using, you can decide yourself which is suitable for you. I think this is a rational choice.

iTextSharp is one of the free open source tool available. Though if you are going to use your application for commercial purpose, then you have to either buy license or release your applicatin code as open source.

The source code and DLLs are at http://sourceforge.net/projects/itextsharp/[^]

This is one of the best tool available. These are the two links available to create and edit PDF in C#.

Of-course, you will have to figure out your requirement yourself in terms use-case and all.

Hope that helps, If it does mark it as answe/upvote.
