Simply in your pdf your fiels should be like:
property group name -> okp:tpl.name
field name -> okp_tpl_name
field_value -> ${okp_tpl_name!}

In PDF templates the name of the field need to be unique. If you want to repeat the same property value, try OpenOffice templates. See http://wiki.openkm.com/index.php/Creating_templates.

Edit: I have included a patch in OpenKM 6.2 Community and now you can set several form fields using a template expression.
