Please try with 2.0.11 and/or share the file (upload to a sharehoster),
both before and after "bad saving". If you do, please mention one single
field name that fails.
When you are saving in scenario 2, from what application are you saving?
The browser itself, here: MSIE? What is "on the previously saved PDF on
disk"? That part is a bit confusing to me, but I just woke up.

I have an issue regarding a dynamically filled PDF form losing checkbox
selection on using the Saves As functionality
I am describing the workflow which we are using currently to fill the PDF
and subsequent issues.
1.
We are receiving the PDF template created through "Adobe InDesign" from
a 3rd party vendor.
2.
We are using "Apache PDFBox 1.8.X' utility to read the PDF form and fill
in all the required fields .. including checkboxes and radio buttons.
3.
Once the Filled up PDF is generated through PDFbox, the PDF opens in a
new browser window. All the selections are visible correctly as desired.
Scenario 1 > If i just save the generated PDF through save button on the
browser , the PDF is saved correctly & all the checkbox selections are
retained. Also, when using Acrobar Pro to inspect the form fields, the
check box fields are identified correctly.
*Scenario 2 ( Having issue )* > In case of *using "Save As" either on the
browser Or "Save As"*on the previously saved PDF on disk, on saving .. The
checkboxes which were selected before displayed without the selections. *Also
, the previously filled Check Box is also not recognized as a Form Field.
Instead the checkbox is almost like a normal image / text almost* .
On a related note , i found that *i am able to view the checkbox selection
when i open the "Save As" pdf it within Internet Explorer or another PDF
utility other than Adobe Acrobat XI* . It seems to be an issue with PDFBox
& Adobe Acrobat XI.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
