             Summary: AcroFields' PDTextField (and others?) can have kids
                 Key: PDFBOX-3898
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3898
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Tim Allison


On TIKA-2442, [~ccreutzig] submitted a PDF file that shows that a PDTextField 
can have Kids.  According to the PDF spec version 1.7, table 8.69, page 675, 
"Kids" is (apparently) available for all fields.  In the description of a Text 
field, the spec says

bq. Besides the usual entries common to all fields (see Table 8.69 on page 675) 
and to fields containing variable text (see Table 8.71)

Acrobat is able to handle the triggering file, and when modified and saved, 
Acrobat maintains the parent field as a PDTextField.
