For this solution it's necessary to break some dependency:

# rpm -ivh??./libgcj-4.4.7-16.el6.x86_64.rpm ./pdftk-2.02-1.el6.x86_64.rpm?
avvertimento: ./libgcj-4.4.7-16.el6.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA1 Signature, ID
chiave c105b9de: NOKEY
errore: Dipendenze fallite:
????????libgmp.so.3()(64bit) necessario a libgcj-4.4.7-16.el6.x86_64

# rpm -qf /usr/lib64/libgmp.so.10
gmp-6.0.0-12.el7_1.x86_64

I have adding --nodeps and it's able to install it.

If there are not other solution, I will use this method

Thanks
