I figure it out and it is working well. Thank you for that link!
I am not sure which part made the major difference, but I am guessing it was
splitting the form field stamping from stamper that added the columntext to
the overContent.
Also, my version doesn't seem to work the way this persons's did. I had to
use setSimpleColumn instead of setYLine in:
// You should insert a new page and get a new cb from that page.
while ( ColumnText.hasMoreText(status) ) {
stamper2.insertPage(++pageCt, PageSize.LETTER);
cb = stamper2.getOverContent(pageCt);
cb.addTemplate(sowPage,0,0); // add the static page as background
ct.setCanvas(cb);
ct.setYLine(ury);
status = ct.go();
}
When i only set the yLine, nothing past the first page printed to the PDF.
I debugged, and it knew there was additional text in the ColumnText, but
nothing made it to the page.
