Hi All / Anyone.

 

I believe that Bruno, et al have much tougher questions to answer to I was hoping someone could just point me in the right direction. I believe what I am attempting to do is very simple, but something is amiss…

 

I need to create a template / boilerplate document that has about 20 fields on it. I used MS Word to create this template with form fields then converted it into PDF, trying both designer 7 and Adobe’s online PDF converter.

 

I found out from Bruno that iText does not support PDF’s created with designer 7 so I was hoping that the online converter would work, but when I open the converted template with Acrobat 7 it does not show any fields.

 

So, simply asked, am I creating the template right? Is there another tool to do this, or do I have to create the template via the iText API (which is what I am going to do as a last resort).  The reason for using the template is that it will allow my client some flexibility in changing the static content and arrangement of the form without requiring code updates.

 

TIA for any info

 

Regards,

Rob
