I just saw that you have already filed a bug for this. That's great!
I'm expecting to be using PDFBox more in the future and would be happy
to at least report any issues that I find here. However, if it makes
more sense for me to go ahead and get a Jira account at Apache.org, I
can do that so that I can email this list and file an issue right away
if that is the recommendation.
FYI, I'd likely do so on my personal account (on GMail) as I might have
time outside of work to contribute more than just reporting on issues.
Would it be recommended to go ahead and get the Apache Jira account set
up? Thanks!

Hi there!
I was glancing through the code to PDFBox 3.0.1 to better grok PDF
form
fields/widgets and the hierarchical way they are organized and I ran
across something that might be a bug in the code.
Or... it might just be my lack of understanding of how PDF default
values work in non-terminal field objects. At the very least I found
it
surprising and different from the code in other types of PDField
subclasses. So I decided to bring it up here on the dev mailing
list.
In the PDNonTerminalField.java file, the setDefaultValue() method
logic
looks like this [1]:
getCOSObject().setItem(COSName.V, value);
It appears to set the value of the COSName.V item... while the
getDefaultValue() method in the class (and the setDefaultValue()
methods
in other PDField subclasses that I checked) use the COSName.DV value
as
expected.
Is this a bug, or is this intentional?
that's a bug - could you file a bug report for that?
