Thank you for your answers.
 
Do you mean following the steps below I can keep the fields (such as buttons, 
text field) in the final document, but except of the signature field, it will 
become a red cross? But why the signature field can't be correctly merged? Is 
it reasonable or just iText doesn't support it currently? (I don't know much 
about the complicated signature things)
 
 
Thanks,
Lucinda

Steps to do:

- create the pdf with PdfWriter and save it (let's call it first)
- read the existing pdf (let's call it second) and remove the signature
field, unless you want to keep it with a big red, invalid cross
- read the first pdf
- concatenate the two pdfs with PdfCopyFields
