Just looking at your code, it looks OK.
Two things.
1) The RadioCheckField class does all this for you. I strongly
recommend you use it instead.
2) Can we see your PDF?

Subject: [iText-questions] Checkbox not displaying "check mark"
whenselected.
Hello,
I am attempting to add a check box to my PDF using iTextSharp and the
following code:
PdfFormField field = PdfFormField.CreateCheckBox(m_PDFWriter);
Rectangle box = new Rectangle(m_CurrentX,
m_CurrentY,
m_CurrentX + Width,
m_CurrentY + Width);
field.SetWidget(box, PdfAnnotation.HIGHLIGHT_INVERT);
field.Flags = PdfAnnotation.FLAGS_PRINT;
field.FieldName = FieldName;
field.ValueAsName = Value ? "On" : "Off";
field.AppearanceState = Value ? "On" : "Off";
field.MKBorderColor = m_ForeColor;
field.MKBackgroundColor = m_FillColor;
PdfAppearance onApp = PdfAppearance.CreateAppearance(m_PDFWriter, Width,
Width);
onApp.SetFontAndSize(m_Font.BaseFont, m_FontSize);
onApp.SetColorFill(m_FillColor);
onApp.SetColorStroke(m_ForeColor);
onApp.Rectangle(0, 0, Width, Width);
onApp.FillStroke();
PdfAppearance offApp = PdfAppearance.CreateAppearance(m_PDFWriter,
Width, Width);
offApp.SetFontAndSize(m_Font.BaseFont, m_FontSize);
offApp.SetColorFill(m_FillColor);
offApp.SetColorStroke(m_ForeColor);
offApp.Rectangle(0, 0, Width - 1, Width - 1);
offApp.FillStroke();
PdfAppearance defaultApp = PdfAppearance.CreateAppearance(m_PDFWriter,
Width, Width);
defaultApp.SetFontAndSize(m_Font.BaseFont, m_FontSize);
defaultApp.SetColorFill(m_FillColor);
defaultApp.SetColorStroke(m_ForeColor);
field.SetAppearance(PdfAnnotation.APPEARANCE_NORMAL, "On", onApp);
field.SetAppearance(PdfAnnotation.APPEARANCE_NORMAL, "Off", offApp);
field.DefaultAppearanceString = defaultApp;
m_PDFWriter.AddAnnotation(field);
The checkbox appears correctly whether or not it is on or off with the
check mark displayed correctly. When the checkbox is selected with the
mouse the box becomes completely filled with the fill color and the mark
is not visible, whether the next state is "On" or "Off". I almost looks
like there is a pattern that needs to be set for the rectangle that will
display the checkmark when it is filled.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Bruce
