> After flattening the pdf form content changes. Pls take a look at before and 
> after pdf. The flattening works fine in 2.0.31. After upgrading to 3.0.3 we 
> started getting many  issues with pdf forms after flattening. 
> The code that used for flattening is as follows
> {code}
> PDDocument pdDocument = Loader.loadPDF(file, “”);
> pdDocument.setResourceCache(new PdfResourceCache())
> try {
>     boolean save = false;
>     if (pdDocument.isEncrypted()) {      
>         pdDocument.setAllSecurityToBeRemoved(true);
>         save = true;
>     }
>     final PDDocumentCatalog pdDocumentCatalog = 
> pdDocument.getDocumentCatalog();
>     if (pdDocumentCatalog != null) {
>         final PDAcroForm pdForm = pdDocumentCatalog.getAcroForm();
>         if (pdForm != null) {       
>             pdForm.flatten();         
>             save = true;
>         }
>     }
>     if (save) {
>         pdDocument.save(file);        
>     }
> }
> {code}
