Are you saying that it is indeed possible to have the same kind of
formatting in a flattened field?
Sure. Just treat the field as a "placeholder rectangle" of
where you are you to place your formatted data.
Yesterday I posted some code to retrieve the coordinates of a button:
float[] barcodebutton = form.getFieldPositions("barcode");
Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(barcodebutton[1], barcodebutton[2],
barcodebutton[3], barcodebutton[4]);
PdfContentByte cb = stamper.getOverContent((int)photograph[0]);
Index 0 gives you a page number; index 1, 2, 3 and 4 give you the
coordinates.
See http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.lib.itext.general/22086
Then just draw it like you would anything else and get rid of the
field when done.
Note that you can't just paste some RTF. Typically, you'd create a
ColumnText object, add all kinds of objects (Paragraph, List,...),
define the coordinates and go().
