Jean-Pascal Laux commented on PDFBOX-4812:
------------------------------------------

We should use Adobe Acrobat Reader. The form is stored in our SharePoint server 
and I think that some users have used (at least, at the beginning) Word Online 
to fill the form. Open the filled form with Adobe Acrobat Reader works fine. 
After flattening, some PDF files open with an error.
