Question: What is the latest version of iText? And what is the maven dependency for that?

Answer: 
looks like 5.3.5 is not in repository yet so 5.3.4 works for me:

```
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.itextpdf</groupId>
    <artifactId>itextpdf</artifactId>
    <version>5.3.4</version>
</dependency>

```
```
This was the latest release as of today

<!-- http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.itextpdf/itextpdf -->

<dependency>
<groupId>com.itextpdf</groupId>
<artifactId>itextpdf</artifactId>
<version>5.5.9</version>
</dependency>

```
