[iText-questions] Itext support for Adobe 7.0 products

I have created a PDF containing acrofields in Adobe Professional 7.0.

When I try to populate acrofields using Itext everyting looks ok.

However when I open the pdf in Adobe Reader 7.0.7 the fields are empty.

If I try to read the fields using itext or other pdf reader products, the fields are populated correctly.

Is this a problem in itext supporting pdf version 1.6?

My java code looks like this.

PdfReader reader = new PdfReader("C:\\test.pdf");

PdfStamper stamp = new PdfStamper(reader, new FileOutputStream("C:\\test2.pdf"));

AcroFields form = stamp.getAcroFields();

PdfContentByte over = stamp.getOverContent(1);

Map field = form.getFields();

for ( Object fieldname: field.entrySet().toArray() )

{

System.out.println( "Field : "+fieldname );

}

//set the field values in the pdf form

System.out.println( "GetField :"+ form.getField("form1[0].#subform[0].fornavn[0]"));

System.out.println( "SetField :"+ form.setField("form1[0].#subform[0].fornavn[0]","itext"));

//System.out.println( "SetField :"+ form.setListOption("ComboBox1.0", array, array));

stamp.setFormFlattening( false );

stamp.close();
