Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-2249:
----------------------------------------
As per above comment I added basic support to handle the appearance generation
for list boxes. There are still some major limitations because of the forms
implementation in 1.8.x. I propose to fix these on a case by case basis only
and put the effort into the 2.x releases.
I opened another case for that PDFBOX-2333
> Listbox controls render incorrectly

> Key: PDFBOX-2249

> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: AcroForm

> 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
