Your code uses com.lowagie.text.* packages, which actually provided in an older version of iText like iText-2.1.6.jar, not in iText-5.0.1.jar.

You can download and put "iText-2.1.6.jar" in the same folder as your Java source file and add "-classpath iText-5.0.1.jar" option to your javac and java command line.
