Hello, I try to use http://itext.ugent.be/articles/eid-pdf/index.php#template
The problem is that I lose my font ... saving in the pdf form. I 'm not producing the form pdf so I must respect the same font,... More I was using setField in my first method and so the font were conserving. I used in my old method the faq method of Itext to add Image Thanks -----E-mail d'origine----- De : Bruno Lowagie (iText) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> A : Post all your questions about iText here <[email protected]> Envoyé le : Mardi 21 Aoû 2007 10:55 Sujet : Re: [iText-questions] direct-mail and manipulation of pdf [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hello, > I'm a new user of Itext and I have some questions. > > 1) I have a form et I would like to do direct-mail (publipostage in > french).

The form is the way to go. Read it with PdfReader and fill it using PdfStamper. Now you have 1 page that is filled. 2. Now you want to combine all these single pages into one PDF. Your problem is that PdfCopy duplicates what you call the 'common bottom', the layer underneath the data you're adding. You end up with very large PDFs. A workaround was published in this article: http://itext.ugent.be/articles/eid-pdf/index.php#template Meanwhile, a better solution was provided. Instead of PdfCopy, you can use PdfSmartCopy. PdfSmartCopy will not duplicate streams (for instance your original form lay-out) and therefore result in smaller PDF files.
