If the original PDF has an AcroForm, you can fill in this form in several ways. There are several examples on Paulo's site (http://itextpdf.sourceforge.net/ look for the example to merge FDFs with PDF forms). If the original PDF isn't a form, you can use PdfStamper to add content at specific locations, but how will you determin the exact locations? > Patrick Goovaerts Je naam komt me bekend voor, maar ik kan ze niet direct plaatsen. mvg, Bruno ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
