Hi,
I'm a Java programmer working with a Pdf form that has a number of
TextFields and radio buttons. My goal is to highlight all those fields that
haven't been populated or checked. I'm able to highlight all the Text fields
and the Signature fields by getting the AcroForms and then setting the
background color if there is no text in it. Listed below is the code i'm using
to achieve this.
// filling in the form
PdfStamper stamp1 = new PdfStamper(reader, new
FileOutputStream(outFile));
AcroFields form1 = stamp1.getAcroFields();
HashMap hm = form1.getFields();
//test
HashMap fields = form1.getFields();
for (Iterator i = fields.keySet().iterator();
i.hasNext();) {
String name = (String)i.next();
AcroFields.Item item =
(AcroFields.Item)fields.get(name);
System.out.println("name ::"+name+" <===> item
::"+item);
if
(form1.getField(name).trim().equalsIgnoreCase(BLANK)) {
form1.setFieldProperty(name,BG_COLOR,
yellowHighlight,null);
form1.setField(name, "");
}
}
However, i cannot seem to set the background colors for the different radio
buttons and checkboxes. I'm able to print out the various possible options for
the radio button but am unable to set the background color for each of the
individual items. Am using the code below to access the radio buttons.
String[] s = form1.getAppearanceStates(name);
if (s.length > 1) {
System.out.println(name+"is a
radio button and needs to be highlighted as well");
for (int k=0; k<s.length; k++) {
System.out.println("::
Item ::"+k+":::"+s[k]);
}
Any Ideas as to how i can set the background colors for the radio button
choices?
Thanks,
Satish
