Hello! I've been writing to you before, it's my original message:
Hello. My name is Andrew. I'm a developer from Accusoft corp. We are using
PDFBox as a base for extracting Acroforms Fields information from PDF that was
created using Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Pro. We are using next properties to
position fields on top of the document after conversion:http://take.ms/Qn5a8
*rect.getLowerLeftX();* *rect.getLowerLeftY();* *rect.getUpperRightX();*
*rect.getUpperRightY();* I'm attaching 2 documents that are quite similar and
both have acroform fields inside of them. Positions of fields in both documents
are identical when viewed inside Acrobat DC, though when processed through
PDFBox we receive different position values. *f1040--2011.pdf *document field
positions are correct, though *f1040--2008.pdf* document positions are shifted
to some amount, that shift is the same for all fields in the document as if
some kind of margin was applied to the fields.http://take.ms/YnFJc Could you
provide us with the information about whether it's an issue of PDFBox and how
it might be fixed? Thanks for help.
You replied:
You didn't tell which field (name) is different. However I noticed
that the two files have different cropboxes / mediaboxes.

Answering your question:
1. All fields in the document are shifted to some defined amount from
their original positions when viewed in the Adobe Acrobat DC
2. So, you are saying that those boxes position should also be taken
into account when positioning Acroform Fields? Could you send me a
method name that can provide those values for the boxes?
Thanks.
