If you can read PDF syntax, it's easy to find the coordinates,
however: to do this programmatically, especially when the document
gets more complex, IS VERY DIFFICULT, IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE!!!

You won't find any simple example, because what you are asking is
one of the most complex issues in PDF.

My advice: tell the person who asked you to do this job, that the
given PDF document IS NOT A TEMPLATE!!! Ask him to provide a PDF
template that contains form fields (preferably in AcroForm format).
