This may be a bug in iText.
I think the PdfTemplate's XObj should have the StructParents entry, not
the page, but it's added to the first page.
When combining direct content manipulation with Document functions, you
have to be Very Careful in various places, and this is clearly one of
them.
Both templates are created from the DirectContent while that direct
content is pointed at the first page. That's not a big deal, BUT:
Beginning marked content sequences tags the CURRENT PAGE with a
StructParents entry, not the one the template is added to later.
Furthermore, if a template is used on multiple pages, the MCIDs and
StructParents entries could easily be entangled. This would require a
change in iText to fix. If you're just using each template on a single
page, no problem. If not... problem.
IIRC, its A Bad Thing to reuse your paragraph structure element the way
you are. I believe the /T entry should contain the text of the marked
content, not a description of the tag type... Nope, not quite.
According to the PDF spec, The T should be a specific title ("Chapter 1"
vs "Chapter"). /ActualText was the key I was thinking of... which is
also Good To Have.

The modern datacenter depends on network connectivity to access resources
and provide services. The best practices for maximizing a physical server's
connectivity to a physical network are well understood - see how these
rules translate into the virtual world?
