Joe Lee commented on PDFBOX-1419:
---------------------------------
Will May,
Could you possibly apply the patch to the latest version of the PDFbox? I
checked the version 1.8.0 source code and your patch is not there. I applied
your patch to Version 1.7.1, it turned out one of the PDTextbox field content
is displayed upside down (not only the text position is wrong.) Any help would
be greatly appreciated.
> PDField.setValue is not behave correctly

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Writing
> Affects Versions: 1.7.0
> Environment: JavaEE 1.6 project developed under Window system, will
> deploy to Unix Weblogic server
> Reporter: Joe Lee
>
> Use a template PDF file to write value into different fields (type of
> PDTextbox, PDCheckbox, PDChoiceField). The PDTextbox displays either very
> large font or not show anything. If click into the field, it displays
> correctly. Click outside the field, it reverts back to the wrong display. The
> same logic of code works well with iText library. The code similar to:
>
> PDFTemplate = PDDocument.load("myTemplate.pdf");
> PDDocumentCatalog docCatalog = PDFTemplate.getDocumentCatalog();
> PDAcroForm acroForm = docCatalog.getAcroForm();
> :
> try { PDField pdField = acroForm.getField(field);
> if (pdField != null) pdField.setValue(value);
> } catch(...){}
