Hello,
I’ve succeded in doing

public void DoWork(string source, IEnumerable items)
{
Aspose.Pdf.Document pdfDocument = new Aspose.Pdf.Document(source);

FormEditor formEditor = new FormEditor(pdfDocument);

foreach (var item in items)
{
var rect = GetRectangle(item);
TextBoxField textBoxField = new TextBoxField(pdfDocument.Pages[item.Page], rect);

textBoxField.Name = item.ItemName;
textBoxField.Value = item.ItemName;

pdfDocument.Form.Add(textBoxField, item.Page);
}

pdfDocument.Save(@“c:\temp\output.pdf”);
}

Just a question…how can I set the textfield font/font-size?
Thanks
