Thank you all for the quick responses.

I'll clarify the situation.

Somehow I need to figure out a solution for the following situation.

A User who requires assistance needs to fill in a form but is unsure of all of the required information.  
For this matter there is an online form which will already contain info from our database.  However the user needs this form to be portable or at least travel over an offline environment.
Later on, the user needs to be able to submit the PDF document online.
So basically there is an offline time gap between the created pdf document and the submit time of this pdf document.

I was thinking about an XFA form with reader enable but when I add a field to the original JSF form I need to adjust the XFA template.
Or, more on the line of what I'm currently thinking, which goes a little something like this:

I have a copy and license of Adobe acrobat 8 Pro.  I create a Root document with "Reader enable", import this in the Java application using a stamper.  
Will I be able to add any field, table or radiobutton in the future and allow the user to save the document with the new fields set on the document?

Sorry if this is a bit weird or strange, know that I don't do that on purpose :)
