I have updated my code base to iText 5.1.3 version and the problem still
exists. When I run the analyze on the generated PDF, I get an error with
regards to "appearance".
Used profile: "Compliant with PDF/A (Draft)" - AP (appearance) contains
only N entry is not true (296 matches on 10 pages)
I am setting the needAppearance option to true.
Could the the problem be that I am merging a collection of PDF files
together and the last one in overrides the settings? I am also not seeing
permissions or PDF properties like version/title/author getting retained.
I am creating a PDF version 1.7 with needAppearance of true, setting
title/author etc, then merging in a collection of other PDF files. The
resulting PDF does not show any of these properties. What is the proper
order to set these properties on a collection of merged forms?
