This is about the content like the text in the page, not the interactive
features as the acroforms.

I'm not sure about what you want. If you have other forms to create, that I
imagine will be different, what's the use of reading them into iText?
Do you want to read existing forms and apply them to other documents?
It's probably better to make a step by step workflow of what you ideally
pretend so that we (and maybe you) understand exactly what you want to do.
