Hi,
I suggest you open an issue in JIRA. Attach your source code there. The
best would be to create your source code like a test that fails. For the
PDF you could create the PDF on the fly like this:
PDDocument doc = new PDDocument();
doc.addPage(new PDPage());
doc.save(....);

Hello,
I'm experiencing a problem when I'm merging PDFs with freetext annotations read
from XFDF strings.
Whenever there's a "freetext" annotation with a "&" in the text (submitted as
"&" by Adobe Reader in the XFDF), merging this annotation will lead to a corrupted display in the
resulting PDF.
This corruption manifests itself in the way that instead of the actual text, it shows
"<body ..." from the XML.
However, if I crudely replace the "&" with "&amp;" in the XFDF prior to
merging, the annotation is displayed correctly.
I have tried to read the XFDF via FDFDocument.loadXFDF(new
ByteArrayInputStream(xfdf.getBytes("UTF-8"))) instead of parsing it to a
document, but this did not change anything.
Tested against PDFBox 2.0.3 and 2.0.4 as of this morning.
My sample code is at the end of the mail, for the input file "demo.pdf" any
portrait A4/letter format PDF should work.
Kind regards,
Kai Keggenhoff
