title: Use iTextsharp to edit pdf template without Acrofields
body: <p>I have a pdf template <strong>without AcroFields</strong> and i need to replace text in it. The text is formated like this <code>((aFieldToReplace))</code>, but there are also tables that need filled up with a <strong>n</strong>-numbered rows.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any good tutorial, resource or sample to find?</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/795066/is-there-a-way-to-replace-a-text-in-a-pdf-file-with-itextsharp">Is there a way to replace a text in a PDF file with itextsharp?</a> has more or less the same question but the answer ignores the "no Acrofield" part of the question.</p>
  
  <p>EDIT:<br />
  To make it even harder, i have multiple templates that i can use. The templates have all there own formatting-style (font, color,...)</p>
  
  <p>EDIT 2:<br />
  The purpose is to create a report with some data in a database. The data in a database is coming from several forms in a ASP.NET MVC application.<br /> 
  The report could have several layouts depending on the chosen template.</p>
  
  <p>Templates should be addable dynamically, so i can't create the layout from scratch. I really need to get the layout from a template.</p>
