I think Sean refers to the capability of iText to have AcroForms that can be merged (with or without flattening) with FDFs. I will be writing a tutorial Chapter on this soon. In the meanwhile, please try the example merge_fdf in the examples zip-file on Paulo's site. It is also possible to import pages of an existing PDF and 'stamp' it (add pagenumbers, add watermarks,...). In that case, you use the PdfTemplate functionality: and you work with 'imported pages'. Check the stamp examples in the examples zip and Chapter 13 of the tutorial. br, Bruno ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
