Hi,
Thank you for your quick reply. Your suggestion of using PDFCopy has helped me
accomplish my requirement. I refered to the chapter 6 in the link provided by
you and got the exact code which was needed to fulfill my requirement.
Thanks & Regards,
Gaurang.

Hi,
I am using the latest version of IText (itextpdf-5.5.1.jar). I am trying to
load a PDF using IText and saving it again without making any changes in
another PDF. I am attaching the code for your reference. The issue is that when
I create this new PDF, the hyperlink is not present. Can you suggest any code
changes that preserves the hyperlink in the newly created PDF.
Your code is wrong. It seems that you preferred following unofficial examples
rather than reading the official documentation. Please download
http://manning.com/lowagie2/samplechapter6.pdf
In the Summary, you'll find a table that explains that all interactive features
(such as hyperlinks) are lost when you use PdfWriter. It explains that you
should use PdfStamper instead (or PdfCopy if more than one document is
involved).
The chapter contains several examples. Don't waste time copy/pasting bad
examples. Read the official documentation and you'll save plenty of time.
