There's a method getFieldPositions() that returns an ArrayList of FieldPosition objects. See http://api.itextpdf.com/itext/com/itextpdf/text/pdf/AcroFields.html#getFieldPositions(java.lang.String) and http://api.itextpdf.com/itext/com/itextpdf/text/pdf/AcroFields.FieldPosition.html Why an ArrayList? Because a single field can be present on different pages at different positions. What is this FieldPosition about? It contains the page number and the coordinates of the rectangle where the widget annotation is drawn. This information can help you answer your question, but I have a more important question: why do you think you need to rewrite your program based on the position of your fields? iText doesn't care in which order you fill out fields. If you pass a correct field name, iText will find that field where ever it's visualized in the document. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AlienVault Unified Security Management (USM) platform delivers complete security visibility with the essential security capabilities.
