Answer 1

As explained many times before (ITextSharp include all pages from the input file, Itext pdf Merge : Document overflow outside pdf (Text truncated) page and not displaying, and so on), you should read chapter 6 of my book iText in Action (you can find the C# version of the examples here).

You are using a combination of Document, PdfWriter and PdfImportedPage to split a PDF. Please tell me who made you do it this way, so that I can curse the person who inspired you (because I've answered this question hundreds of times before, and I'm getting tired of repeating myself). These classes aren't a good choice for that job:

• you lose all interactivity,
• you need to rotate the content yourself if the page is in landscape,
• you need to take the original page size into account,
• ...

Your problem is similar to this one itextsharp: unexpected elements on copied pages. Is there any reason why you didn't read the documentation? If you say: "I didn't have the time", please believe me if I say that I have almost 20 years of experience as a developer, and I've never seen "reading documentation" as a waste of time.

Long story short: read the documentation, replace PdfWriter with PdfCopy, replace AddTemplate() with AddPage().
