> The document created has a larger pagesize than the template document. The

> 
> PdfReader reader = new PdfReader("DocIn.pdf");
> Rectangle psize = reader.getPageSize(1);

> Document document = new Document(psize);
> PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new
> FileOutputStream("DocOut.pdf"));
> document.open();
> 
> PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContent();
> document.newPage();
> PdfImportedPage page = writer.getImportedPage(reader, 1);
> cb.addTemplate(page,  0, 0);
> 
> BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont(BaseFont.HELVETICA, BaseFont.CP1252,
> BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);
> cb.beginText();
> cb.setFontAndSize(bf, 12);
> cb.showTextAligned(PdfContentByte.ALIGN_LEFT, "Testing Testing",
> psize.left()+130, psize.bottom()+270, 0);
> cb.endText();
> document.close();
