Thanks for the hints to rename the parent. I bought the IText in action book. I was able to rename the parent fields in each page.
But when the output pdf is generated, the data shown in each page is for Page1. When we saved the pdf and double clicked on the fields, we can see that actual values for each page, but they are overlaid on top of the values from Page1. In Adobe Life Cycle, in design view, it is seen that the fields from Page1 are getting added to each page. Can some one please let me know how can the overlaying of the text on each page be removed? I want to be able to remove the fields from Page1 that are getting copied(added) to each page. We are using 2.1.7 jar version of IText. Thanks again. 1T3XT info wrote: > > jthom wrote: >> This is my first time using iText: >> >> Could you give little more info in how the parent can be renamed? > > Get the /AcroForm from the root. > Parse the tree with the fields, > replace the /T value of the field you want to change. > > If this is your first time using iText: > ask a professional to do it for you. > > Chapter 18 of "iText in Action - first edition" can help you understand > what the first three lines of my answer mean.
