I am upgrading a project from 1.8.6 to the 2.0.2 version of PDFBox and everything went reasonably well except that we made use of PDFieldFactory
PDField destField = PDFieldFactory.createField Everything in PDFieldFactory used to be public but now it is all package private. I tried to copy the code for that method into our project and found that all of the various PDField objects being created were also package private. It looks like the code we have came from overriding and copying PDFMergerUtility.appendDocument to fix an apparent bug. PDFMergerUtility.appendDocument makes a call to PDFieldFactory.createField. I could continue to force my way around this issue but I have to wonder if this was intentional.
