             Summary: Improve handling of control characters when setting 
AcroForm field values
                 Key: PDFBOX-3461
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3461
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: AcroForm
    Affects Versions: 2.0.2, 2.0.1, 2.0.3, 2.1.0
            Reporter: Maruan Sahyoun


When filling AcroForm fields the text supplied to {{setValue}} might contain 
control characters such as {{\n}} {{\r}}, {{\t}} and others which leads to an 
{{ java.lang.IllegalArgumentException}} for most fonts as there is no glyph to 
represent these.

We could enhance the processing of the string provided to provide proper 
replacements similar to how Adobe Acrobat handles that.
