Import cannot be resolved in Eclipse from dependency in Play 2.0

I successfully added a dependency in Play 2.0 and was able to compile the project. When I try to run a simple test to render a PDF I get this error:

The import com.itextpdf cannot be resolved 

import com.itextpdf.text.Document; 
import com.itextpdf.text.DocumentException; 
import com.itextpdf.text.Paragraph; 
import com.itextpdf.text.pdf.PdfWriter;

How do I clear this error with Play managing this dependency?

I solved this problem by running "play eclipse" on my project in command line and then Project-->Clean in Eclipse. Similarly for Intellij "play idea" and then File > Invalidate Caches > Invalidate and restart.

If the dependency is properly added, the jar should now be on the build path. Could you check if it actually is on your buildpath? Note that the /lib directory of your project is automatically included. You could try making a symlink in /lib to the jar
