Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-2249: ---------------------------------------- I’ve fixed the list box appearance stream generation for the sample PDF in my working copy. The result looks similar to what Adobe Acrobat displays. I have a very limited number of AcroForms for testing so if someone could point me to and/or provide additional sample forms that would be great. The fix is for 1.8 only at that point in time as it’s duplicating a lot of code and addresses the listbox only. > Listbox controls render incorrectly > ----------------------------------- > > Key: PDFBOX-2249 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2249 > Project: PDFBox > Issue Type: Bug > Components: AcroForm > Affects Versions: 1.8.6 > Environment: Windows 7 > Reporter: John McDonald > Assignee: Maruan Sahyoun > Labels: Appearance > Fix For: 1.8.7 > > Attachments: JMACTest.pdf, JMAC_PDFBOX_out.pdf, PDFBoxUtil.java, > PDFFormFields.pdf > > > I have a form with a listbox. I update the value in the listbox using the > following code: > PDChoiceField c = (PDChoiceField)f; > ((PDChoiceField)f).setValue("2"); > I have a combo box that uses the same choices, and it works fine. The issue > has to do with the rendering of the field. The update of the value (i.e. > setValue method) works fine, but when I look at the resulting output PDF the > choices have become unreadable because the font has gone way large. > I have searched the mailing list, and posted a question regarding this that > no one has answered, so I am now assuming this is an unknown bug. > Thanks -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
