Summary: Checkbox with multiple widgets doesn't reflect check()
state.
Key: PDFBOX-2961
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2961

Reporter: Maruan Sahyoun

Fix For: 2.0.0
If a checkbox has multiple annotations (i.e. the same checkbox field occurs
multiple times within the form) the appearance state for the annotation
widgets is not correctly set.

Hi,
I have a simple document with two PDCheckbox fields, and one of those fields
has two AnnotationWidgets. I am able to successfully call check() on the first
field and see the result in the output document, but calling check() on the
field with multiple AnnotationWidgets has no effect.
My understanding of duplicated fields is that only a single PDField exists but
that an AnnotationWidget kid will exist for each instance of the field in the
document, so setting the PDField parent once should affect all of the children.
Am I misunderstanding how this should work?
Attached is the document I am testing as well as a small Java class that
reproduces the issue by calling check() on everything in getFields(). I have
tried this with PDFBox 1.8.9, 1.8.10, and the 09/03 Snapshot of 2.0.0. I am
viewing the document with Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Version 2015.008.20082.
Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bart.
