In what way does the PDF not work? Are they just getting a "not the
right version" message when they open the file?
Any time someone opens a PDF with a version MARKED as being newer than
the viewer (Reader, Acrobat, whatever) they are using, the get a warning
message. It's entirely possible that this error report is simply a
result of seeing that message. iText just leaves the original version
number in place from the original file. You can call
myPdfWriter.setPdfVersion( PdfWriter.PDF_VERSION_1_X ), where X is
whatever you need to support.

Subject: Re: [iText-questions] What version of Adobe Acrobat?
The PDF that is generated from the program is generated via iText and
isn't saved anywhere, just displayed in a browser, so I don't have a
sample of that to show you. The final PDF is created from three separate
PDFs, two of which I attached. These two PDFs were, indeed, generated
originally from Acrobat 9, and one of them (GFE) has some fields that
can be filled in by the program. The third PDF is generated dynamically
in memory at run-time by Reporting Services and isn't saved anywhere.

This is not an iText question. You can create PDF documents
with Acrobat 9 that have functionality that doesn't work
in Acrobat 8. To have those documents work in Acrobat 8,
you need to avoid the functionality that was introduced in
Acrobat 9. That can be a range of things, it would lead us
too far to list them here.
The easiest solution would be for you to show us the PDF.
