I know you're using iTextSharp but unless it's fixed in Java porting to C# won't help.

Paulo ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nick Kowalewicz" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, March 25, 2009 3:19 PM Subject: [iText-questions] Bug: Merging Data containing a single quote withRead-Only field Dear iText-Questions: Sorry, but, I don't think the last message was readable, because, it was sent as HTML format instead of Plain-text. ORIGINAL MESSAGE: A weird bug is happening when I merge FDF data with an "Acrobat" form PDF. I'm attempting to merge data which contains a single quote, "St. Peter's Church". Only when the PDF form field is set with a "Read-Only" under Acrobat field properties, the field doesn't display the single quote. It appears like, "St. Peters Church", without the single quote after "Peter". But, when the PDF form field is not Read-Only, the merged PDF form is display correctly with the single quote "St. Peter's Church". This is happening in the newest version of iTextSharp, but, the older versions do not have this problem. Is this something I can edit in iTextSharp source code, or do I have to wait for a new release? I am also waiting for the latest release of iTextSharp, so I can merge reader-extended LiveCycle forms without causing it to say the extensions have been revoked. Do you know when this feature will be released, last time I asked you said February, was that 2010? Here is some sample code: Dim reader As New iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfReader(formFile) Dim MemStream As New MemoryStream Dim stamper As New iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfStamper(reader, MemStream) Dim fields As iTextSharp.text.pdf.AcroFields fields = stamper.AcroFields fields.SetField("PDFFieldName", "St. Peter's Church")) stamper.FormFlattening = False stamper.Writer.CloseStream = False stamper.Close() Regards, Nick K. http://www.nk-inc.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php
