[iText-questions] Problem with Acro Fields and rotated page format

[Christian Lauer]

I've tried to place an AcroField on a rotated page, which doesn't seem
to work. The text field in this case seems to be initially drawn at the
right place but if you like to edit the field the text is rendered
rotated by 90 degrees. I've attached a PDF document which illustrates
the effect plus the JAVA source code.

Best regards,
Christian
