Hi Paulo,

This is how I try to set the field "notes" to "not required:

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
  File f = new File("C:/tmp/test/foo.pdf");
  FileInputStream inStream = new FileInputStream(f);
  PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(inStream);
  PdfStamper stamp = new PdfStamper(reader, new FileOutputStream(
    "c:/tmp/test/test.pdf"));
  AcroFields form = stamp.getAcroFields();
  form
  .setFieldProperty("notes","setfflags", PdfFormField.FF_REQUIRED, null);
  stamp.close();
  log.debug("ready");
}

Thanks for your help,
Beate
