[iText-questions] Save typed-in content with Adobe Reader

Hey,

I built a DocumentBuilder which builds Pdf Documents using iText.  My idea
was to couple setter fields from a Bean receiving form data from a JSF page
to the documentbuilder class.  This allows me to dynamically produce Pdf
files, however one of the requirements is for the user to fill in missing,
incomplete or incorrect Data in the generated pdf document itself, online.

Someone told me to perhaps use rights in the document.  I have the book and
I found a few possibilities for setting rights to a document, either by the
PdfEncryption class or using a stamper but I'm unsure wheather this will
produce the desired effect.  Something tells me that I will need the Adobe
Acrobat full version for this.

Or I could create a template document but that would destroy the idea of
dynamically generating documents depending on the fields in the online form.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Thomas

ps. Nice framework :)
