Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-2249:
----------------------------------------
[~tilman] thanks for the link to the test file.
Changing the listbox values using Adobe Acrobat also changes the appearance
values so that Adobe Acrobat’s defaults are used e.g. for the highlight box
instead of the original highlight box. Filling out the form using OSX Preview
shows a different behavior. So for now I think it’s best to use the same
approach with default styles for various parts of a listbox.

> I have a form with a listbox. I update the value in the listbox using the
> following code:
> PDChoiceField c = (PDChoiceField)f;
> ((PDChoiceField)f).setValue("2");
> I have a combo box that uses the same choices, and it works fine. The issue
> has to do with the rendering of the field. The update of the value (i.e.
> setValue method) works fine, but when I look at the resulting output PDF the
> choices have become unreadable because the font has gone way large.
> I have searched the mailing list, and posted a question regarding this that
> no one has answered, so I am now assuming this is an unknown bug.
> Thanks
