Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-2918:
----------------------------------------
>From the PDF Specs implementation notes (which are not part of the ISO spec
>but describe how Adobe Acrobat behaves)
{quote}
If the MK entry is present in the field’s widget annotation dictionary (see
Table 8.39), Acrobat viewers regenerate the entire XObject appearance stream.
If MK is not present, the contents of the stream outside /Tx BMC... EMC are
preserved.

So we should do the same.
