Right final version (hopefully!) :
public void createPdf(String filename) throws Exception {
// Pass 1 : Build Content
Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4);
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, baos);
document.open();
...
document.close();
// Pass 2 : Header & Template
// Header Page
document = new Document();
PdfSmartCopy copy = new PdfSmartCopy(document, new
FileOutputStream(filename));
document.open();
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(new
RandomAccessFileOrArray(HEADER), null);
baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, baos);
fillFields(stamper.getAcroFields(), 0);
stamper.setFormFlattening(true);
stamper.close();
copy.addPage(copy.getImportedPage(new
PdfReader(baos.toByteArray()), 1));
// Template
PdfReader contentReader = new PdfReader(new
RandomAccessFileOrArray(baos.toByteArray()), null);
int numPages = contentReader.getNumberOfPages();
for (int page = 1; page <= numPages; page++) {
reader = new PdfReader(TEMPLATE);
baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, baos);
fillFields(stamper.getAcroFields(), page);
stamper.setFormFlattening(true);
PdfImportedPage template =
stamper.getImportedPage(contentReader, page);
stamper.getOverContent(1).addTemplate(template, 0, 0);
stamper.close();
reader = new PdfReader(baos.toByteArray());
copy.addPage(copy.getImportedPage(reader, 1));
}
document.close();
}

OK but in this case in order to keep the same look as the original
font field I'd need to retrieve its font family, weight and size. How
can this be done? I've looked around online without much luck...
In that case, you should stick with your own design, and create the
background in two passes: fill out the form, then use it as a
background, BUT there's an important caveat: if you do it this way,
adding a background as a PdfImportedPage that is slightly different
for every page, your PDF will be bloated. The common part of the
background (the form without the page numbers) will be added as many
times as there are page. Therefore, you may want to use PdfSmartCopy
instead of PdfStamper in your final pass. PdfSmartCopy will detect the
redundant content, and you'll end up with PDFs that have a much
smaller file size.
