Please post your questions to the mailinglist.
Not to me personally.
For instance: tomorrow and the day after tomorrow
I am on vacation. You probably won't get any answers then.

OK, if the blank rectangles represent AcroFields,
you can fill in 12 values.

In Belgium beer is sold in cases that can contain 24 bottles.
Suppose I would ask the beer vendor how I can fill a beer case
with 36 bottles, what should he answer?

Maybe, but I think your design is wrong.

It all depends on your project.
If there is some white space left under the table,
you could retrieve the coordinates of the cells
and draw an extra row.
A better idea might be to remove the table from
the template, keeping only the header and other
content. Add the table with PdfPTable.writeSelectedRows.

Your English is well enough for me to understand your
question, but the main problem is that you should first
learn more about PDF. PDF is not a word processing format
like word. The layout in your original PDF ('the template')
is fixed. You can't just insert a line and expect all the
other data to 'repurpose'.
