Dear iText:
I have a question regarding the message below. Has the feature of editing
and saving an Adobe Reader Extended forms, and still being able to save the
form in Adobe Reader, been implemented in iTextSharp?
It appears to have been implemented in iText, but not iTextSharp, can you
give a reference to a time when this feature will be available in
iTextSharp?
Regards,
Nick K.
ITextSharp Disables Extended Features in Adobe Reader

I am populating a textbox using the ItextSharp Dlls. When I save this form I
need the Extended Featues in Adobe Reader to still be enabled. I know that
ITextSharp doesn't add Extended Features in Adobe Reader but it is disabling
them in a pdf form that already had Extended Features in Adobe Reader added
using Adobe Acrobat Pro. Here is my code:
Dim pdfReader As PdfReader = New
PdfReader(MyControlProperties.TemplateFormPath)
Dim pdfStamper As PdfStamper = New PdfStamper(pdfReader, New
FileStream(MyControlProperties.AbsoluteFormPath, FileMode.Create))
Dim pdfFormFields As AcroFields = pdfStamper.AcroFields
'set form pdfFormFields
'The first worksheet and W-4 form
pdfFormFields.SetField("property_address_line_1", "Hello World")
'report by reading values from completed PDF
'pdfFormFields.GetField("property_address_line_1")
'flatten the form to remove editting options, set it to false
'to leave the form open to subsequent manual edits
pdfStamper.FormFlattening = False
'close the pdf
pdfStamper.Close()

That's already supported in Java but it's not yet ported to C#. It will be
done when I have the time.
