I have pdf files with formatting applied to some of the fileds and I want to
remove that formatting.
Below I list the routine I use to inspect the format and get the javascript
name and therefore determine the type of formatting - although this is not
important as all I want to do is remove the formatting.
While I am a novice with iText and PDF in general, I see that AA's are used
to specify the format, so I guess I want to remove the AA associated with
the field, or perhaps remove the javascript, or even perhaps modify the
javascript to return the data unformatted - whatever...
How would I remove the formatting form fields?
thanks

<Code>
Private Shared Function GetFieldFormat(ByVal item As AcroFields.Item) As
String
'Get Additional Actions
Dim aa As PdfDictionary =
PdfReader.GetPdfObject((item.GetMerged(0)).Get(PdfName.AA))
If aa IsNot Nothing Then
'Get F format
Dim f As PdfDictionary =
PdfReader.GetPdfObject(aa.Get(PdfName.F))
If f IsNot Nothing Then
'Get Javascript
Dim js As PdfString =
PdfReader.GetPdfObject(f.Get(PdfName.JS))
If js IsNot Nothing Then
Dim sScriptName As String = js.ToString
If (sScriptName.Contains("AFNumber_Format")) Then
Return "Number"
ElseIf (sScriptName.Contains("AFDate_Format")) Then
Return "Date"
ElseIf (sScriptName.Contains("AFTime_Format")) Then
Return "Time"
ElseIf (sScriptName.Contains("AFSpecial_Format")) Then
Return "Special"
ElseIf (sScriptName.Contains("AFPercent_Format")) Then
Return "Percent"
Else
Return "Custom"
End If
End If
End If
End If
Return "None"
End Function
</Code>
