The best and probably only way to do it is to look at what Acrobat produces and then copy it. Try this: TextField field3 = new TextField(writer, new Rectangle(50, 640, 50 + 100, 640 + 50), "Values_Total"); field3.setBackgroundColor(Color.GREEN); field3.setBorderColor(Color.BLUE);

I won't pretent to be an expert in this area, but it sounds alot like something is not getting closed out, or reset at the end of your first run. Then, when the second runs, it is using stale data of some sort, you might try various out prints to see if you are getting something odd.
