I don't see "hello there" printed anywhere. My objective is to move to
a certain position in the form and print "hello" or whatever that makes
sense. I want to do this way given that the application.pdf does not contain
any fields. I am not in a position to regenerate this document with fields.
I'd appreciate your help
Thanks

I am not looking to overlay one pdf on another. I want to fill up a form that has no fields. If you look at foxit.com you will see that they have a way to fill a form that has no fields. Here is my code to do it. But it doesn't work. Thanks for your help
