Get acrofields font from pdf using Itextsharp

I need to get the Font information, name and size from a specific field in the pdf form. In the pdf there are more fields with the same name and different Font and I don't want to edit the pdf field's names. I'm using Itexsharp. Can anyone help me with this? Thank you.

I solved, It works like this:

Private Sub FieldsFontProperties(ByVal Path As String)
    Dim Reader As PdfReader = New PdfReader(Path)
    Dim Fields As AcroFields = Reader.AcroFields

    For Each Field In Fields.Fields
        Dim Item As AcroFields.Item = Fields.GetFieldItem(Field.Key)
        Dim TextField As TextField = New TextField(Nothing, Nothing, Nothing)
        Fields.DecodeGenericDictionary(Item.GetMerged(0), TextField)
        Dim t As String()() = TextField.Font.FullFontName

        Dim FontName As String = t(0)(3)
        Dim FontSize As Single = TextField.FontSize
    Next
End Sub
