Hello Norman,
congratulation on your PDF library!
While I partially agree that PDF Forms are nice I run in some problems with them (while
using iText):
1. One isn't able to format the label & the inputfield
2. The input is always displayed in some typewriter font
(Please correct me if I'm wrong on any of this ;))
What I would like to have is more like the PDFStamper (if I remember iText correctly).
I.e. I have a ISO letter and then fill in the content (address, text, ...) by using tags
that give me the possiblity to set the margin in X & Y axis, the width, the font, ...,
and a footer after I'm done ;)
This way one could create a PDF with whatever method and latter "stamp" it with
the actual content.
More exactly: extend your current library with a tag that sets the font, exact distance
from left & upper paper border, textwidth, ... and perhaps some nice paragraph braking
(so that there isn't only a single line on the next page).
This would really save me some time instead of accessing the content via iText direct
writer!
What do you think of it?
