I assumed that you were talking about an EXISTING FORM. Now I see that you create PdfContentByte on a Document object. This is strange for two reasons: - Document is only used when you create a PDF from scratch; - if you create a PDF from scratch, you get a PdfContentByte from a PdfWriter object, not from a Document object. > 2) Using lines like this, I place 'badge rows' (br) where i want them: I don't understand why you are using this approach. Why aren't you using a real interactive form? Why are you using cb.showTextAligned(), it's easier to use ct.showTextAligned(). > If this code executes, all OTHER fields on the document disappear, and I > end up with just a few characters of the field, with the X through it, > and nothing else on the document. > > What am I doing wrong? Hard to tell: you only provide part of the code, NOT the code that matters. Please write a small example that we can run in standalone mode. Also show us the original PDF: is it a form? You are using PdfStamper, aren't you? If not: please read the documentation.
