Hi Paulo,
Thanks for your help!!!
I was able to edit and save the PDF file (that got generated from iText) only
once. When I tried to open it and save it again, I got a warning like that as
of before - ""This document contained certain rights to enable special
features in Adobe Reader. The document had been changed since it was created
and these rights are no longer valid. Please contact the author for
the original version of this document."
I need the populated PDF to be editable and savable forever. Could you please
help?
Thanks,
Jackson Ninan
