Thanks for you patience in answering me :)
I wanted your input regarding designing  my requirement. In application,
on which I working, there would be lot of email template and which will
be generated and sent by client for whom we are working (one I sent u in
attachment). I am thinking to ask client to send the email in template
in form of AcroForm. Then I can use iTEXT to populate the fields using
iText.
This would be better approach?

Here in template few fields will be repetitive (in some cases we have to
show 2 or more Principal Investigator) like Principal Investigator (see
attachment) so can I insert(copy) portion of text in AcroForm through
iText?

Regards
Shailesh

You can do it 'the hard way', using iText only.
But I am told that you can also use iText in combination with JPedal.
I think there's a tutorial on jpedal.org somewhere about it.
The basic idea is that you use JPedal to visualize your PDF and JPedal
uses iText to add the AcroFields you define in the JPedal GUI.
Let me know if this is right, because it would be a good topic for the
FAQ.
