No, there is not. Either the signature is visible on the page or it is not. However, regardless of what content may exist on a page, Adobe Reader will display information in the "Signature Panel" and in the "Message Bar" about the signed nature of the document for the user. Leonard -Origi

iText only supports PDF/A-1, which does not support layers/OCGs. You are correct that PDF/A-2 does support them (among many other things) but such support is not in iText. Please feel free to add it! (of course, be aware that PDF/A-2 is still in DIS stage at the ISO) Leonard -Original M

Assuming you mean XFA-based forms when you talk about "dynamic forms", then it is impossible to read "acro fields" from such a form, as it has no such concept. XFA-based forms use a VERY different forms technology than AcroForms. However, iText does support reading & writing XFA so that you can
