I checked, and the form fields are created as visible. Do I need to also set 
them to visible through iText??
 
If the book can help with this I will wait for it, it will take around ten days 
to arrive. But if it can't help with this issue plz let me know so I can work 
on it in the mean time.
 
Thank you for your time.
