Leonard,
Is there any documentation anywhere on this? Do you know of an
example iText program that I could look at?

Subject: Re: [iText-questions] How to change a PDF but preserve the
rights
It _IS_ possible to fill in a PDF that has been "Reader Enabled" w/
o violating the rights - but it MUST be done in a very specific
fashion using "append mode" on the source PDF AND only modifying a
limited number of objects in the PDF.
So yes, if you are going to create a whole new PDF - you'll break
the "Reader Enabling". If you're careful about what you do, and
how you do it, you CAN accomplish your goal.

I have a PDF containing an XFA form; isXfaPresent() == true. The
PDF was authored so that it can be opened in Adobe Reader, fields
in the form can be filled, and the form can be saved by Reader to
the file system.
Using iText I have read in the PDF, obtained the XfaForm, changed
values in the XML Document, and written a new PDF to the file system.
The PDF I write out contains the values I put into the XML, but
the rights to save the PDF from Reader have been lost. Is this
expected? Other features of the original PDF are also lost in the
newly-written PDF.
I wrote the changed PDF to a new file. If this is the reason the
save rights were lost, is there a way I can modify the existing
PDF in place so that the rights to save the file from Adobe Reader
are maintained?
