    You’re not going to get a definitive legal statement from anyone here. But –

    Unfortunately that code uses lots of extra libraries that all have separate licences. From a quick glance you’ve got

    • PDFLibNet – see the licence section on that page, Code Project Open Licence
    • iTextSharp – Affero GPL or buy a commercial licence
    • GhostScript – GPL or buy a commercial licence
    • FreeImage – GPL or FreeImage public licence (OK for commercial)
    • Tessnet2 – Apache 2 (OK for commercial)
    • The text mentions XPDF – if there’s actually XPDF code here too that’s also GPL or buy a commercial licence

    So you’d need to buy commercial licences for a couple of components unless you’re willing to release your source. Depending on how you’re using the library you may be able to remove those components instead, though.
