Two options: 1/ Use dynamic XFA: this means using Adobe Software, not iText. 2/ Why do you need a template? I create invoices for 30,000 students using iText. Some invoices are simple (enrolled for 1 course); others are very complex (Phd, combined with different courses). My "template" is and XSL file containing the standard clauses of the invoice; the variable data is in an XML file (one per student). In the previous version of that application, the standard clauses were in an XML file; the data came straight from the database. -- This answer is provided by 1T3XT BVBA http://www.1t3xt.com/ - http://www.1t3xt.info ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
