I don't know: you haven't told us anything about your requirements. Browse the examples, and find out if the results correspond with your needs. > I’m pretty new to the iText world so am sure there a whole lot that can > be done!

That is weird, but we don't have a crystal ball. There's no way for us to see what you're doing. > Basically lets say there is a databound field called surname on the pdf > how would I have that ‘surname ‘ printed multiple times on the generated > pdf? I would really, really appreciate it, if you downloaded this free chapter: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Reading this chapter will save both you and me plenty of time. I have the impression you want to "edit" a PDF, that you want to add "fields" and expect the existing content to "reflow". That's not possible in PDF unless you use Dynamic XFA, and if you use Dynamic XFA, you can fill out the form using iText, but you can't "flatten" it. If you don't know what "flattening" is, read page 183 in the free chapter. -- This answer is provided by 1T3XT BVBA http://www.1t3xt.com/ - http://www.1t3xt.info ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Next 800 Companies to Lead America's Growth: New Video Whitepaper David G.
