Just wondering what iText can do with AcroForms...more specifically, I wanted to know if you could (or whether it would be fairly easy to extend iText to) read a PDF document which includes an AcroForm, change the values in the form (eg. to prefill certain form fields) and then save the prefilled PDF back out again?
>From looking quickly at the API, it seems you can copy an AcroForm from one PDF to another using PdfWriter and PdfCopy classes. There is also a PRAcroForm class that allows you read the form out of the PDF, but that class doesn't seem to have any methods to modify the form values. a) Could PRAcroForm be extended (fairly easily) to allow changing of the form values in the internal PdfDictionary structures? b) If (a) is possible, how hard would it be to extend PdfWriter to allow it to accept a PRAcroForm object to write out?
