Martín Ferrari commented on PDFBOX-45:
--------------------------------------
Thanks Tilman. I wanted to add that, for the specific file i'm filling, I
tried a lot of .net libraries. Most of them won't even open it (it's a signed
file). iText will open it, but will break the signature when saving (support
said in some cases that happens). Since I don't have the original certificate,
I can't use that. Spire.pdf will open, and it has a really cool xfa api, but it
won't get the list options for dropdowns correctly most of the time (I sent
them the files and they confirmed this behavior); It saves without breaking the
signature, but it removes an xml tag that makes Adobe Reader fail a field
validation on opening for some fields. Since it doesn't allow low level
manipulation of the xml, it's not good.
But this branch just works. :) For now I'm trying just one file, but
probably will try more and send an update if I see any issues.
Thanks again.
