If you want to prefill the form (and end up with a PDF that
still has a form), you're out of luck. If it's your intention
to flatten the form, you are very close with HTMLWorker.

Instead of using setField(), use getFieldPositions() and use
the coordinates you retrieved as boundaries for a ColumnText
object. Feed the ColumnText object with the objects obtained
with HTMLWorker and go().
