OK, I see from your next question that you've found a way to flatten the form partially. Another way would be to set the flags of the field to read only. This is done like this: form.setFieldProperty(field, "setfflags", PdfFormField.FF_READ_ONLY, null); Note that the latter solution can always be undone (using iText, using Acrobat,...), but end users only using Acrobat Reader probably won't know how to do this. As for your question about the iText version where the flattening functionality was introduced, that's documented here: http://www.1t3xt.com/about/history.php But if you have to upgrade, you should always upgrade to the latest version. -- This answer is provided by 1T3XT BVBA http://www.1t3xt.com/ - http://www.1t3xt.info ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php
