This is what I need to do - 1. Create a pdf file from given data (Easy using iText)
2. At a later point, reopen this pdf and add some more data to it I am not quite sure how to do this. Is there a way to get all the data in the pdf into a byte array, add more data to the byte array and recreate a pdf?
