Hi Larry, In "http://itextpdf.com/examples/iia.php?id=157";, the 'field_1', 'field_2',...are created by another java block. They are not common field names.
In http://1t3xt.be/?107, the 'key' is variable. It may be any field name which got from "Set<String> fields = form.getFields().keySet(); for (String key : fields) {" So, you should replace the special field names with the variable (key). The values of the variable should be gotten by "form.getFields().keySet();" If you give me your private email address, I can copy the complete code to you.
