I also faced this type problem and resolved by follow the instruction of below link. it is so helpful it save my 3 days hard work. You can try this

https://www.aspsnippets.com/Articles/ASPNet-iTextSharp-SystemSecuritySecurityException-That-assembly-does-not-allow-partially-trusted-callers.aspx

Last 2 more step doing by me which is not mentioned 1. Remove old reference of iTextsharp from your project. 2. Add new iTextsharp dll reference in your project. which is make by you. Then publish your project. Do not directly paste the new itextsharp.dll in your server with old publish code.

I got the same issue and it has solved by creating another folder, move all the contents to that and change the application path to the new folder. I can't say that how it solved fore sure. But it worked for me. I believe it has due to some caching issue in IIS.

Hope this will help you guys.

The best thing about it though is that it can run in Medium trust mode - once a minor change is made to allow partially trusted callers. To make this change download the iTextSharp source distribution (http://sourceforge.net/projects/itextsharp/files/) Modify the AssemblyInfo.cs file to add the partially trusted callers attribute.

[assembly: AllowPartiallyTrustedCallers()]

Rebuild the iTextSharp assembly and it should be good to go in a Medium trust environment.

Most probably the library that you use does not support a medium trust environment (most shared hosting companies). It might not be your code that throws the error, but the third party - make sure that they do support this.

If the stack trace ends in a portion of code written by you, then please provide this code, currently it is not clear what exactly doesn't have permissions to run.
