Subject: Adding form fields to a pdf

Hi,

I need to add a hidden form field and a HtmlPostField on each page of an existing pdf document (contains form fields).

From what I read in the documentation, I need to use the PdfStamper Class:
I guess my code will look like: (I need help on *add my forms here!!!*)
Thanks for your help

PdfReader pdf_reader;
FileOutputStream pdf_os;
pdf_reader = new PdfReader(pdf_file);
pdf_os = new FileOutputStream(dest_file);
PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(pdf_reader, pdf_os);

int nb_pages = pdf_reader.getNumberOfPages();
for (int i=1;i<=nb_pages;i++) {
PdfContentByte cb = stamper.getOverContent(i);
//*add my forms here!!!*

}
