Right, thanks for clearing that up.

So after creating the AcroForm template, which I can do programatically or by any other means, it doesn't really matter.  Perhaps creating it programatically is the best solution because I can name the fields myself and be able to recognize them better.

I do have an additional question.

After I created the template and made it Reader Enabled, can I use a PdfStamper or PdfWriter to modify the textfields without breaking the Reader Enable?
