Form Fields for subsequent pages not displayed.

[jvora]

We are concatenating pages to create a document with 2 signed documents additional history pages and certificate page with form fields, we have same certificate page with form fields that we are adding in 2 separate places within the document.

On opening the pdf in Acrobat reader, the first page with the fields loads fine, but the 2nd page doesn't display the form fields.

In Signature Panel, if we click on 'click to view this version', then the form fields for the 2nd page is visible. But this is not a solution we are looking for.

On flattening this page and then adding it to the document, works fine, but the question here is why won't it display on without flattening or without the the need for clicking on 'click to view this version'.

This is a problem we are able to see in Acrobat Reader only, the same pdf looks fine in DocumentViewer.

Any Suggestions on how can we make this work in Acrobat Reader?

How does you combine the pages?

[jvora]

concatenatedDoc = new PdfCopy(doc, out);

PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(data);

concatenatedDoc.addDocument(reader);

May be a problem of this non-Adobe software.

This helped, we renamed the fields.

Thank you for your time.
