Summary: Group of Button fields treated as a Radio Button group Key: PDFBOX-2617 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2617 Project: PDFBox Issue Type: Bug Components: AcroForm Affects Versions: 1.8.8 Environment: Windows 7, Eclipse, JRE 1.8.0_25 Reporter: Gilad Denneboom Priority: Minor Attachments: test.pdf When creating a group of identical button fields PDFBox reads them as a group of radio-button fields, with each widget as a check-box, which is incorrect. The main field has the class PDRadioCollection and each kid is a PDCheckbox. Run the following code on the attached file: PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load( new File("test.pdf") ); PDAcroForm form = doc.getDocumentCatalog().getAcroForm(); List<PDField> fields = form.getFields(); for (PDField f: fields) { System.out.println("Name:" + f.getFullyQualifiedName()); System.out.println("Type:" + f.getFieldType()); System.out.println("Class:" + f.getClass()); List<COSObjectable> kids = f.getKids(); if (kids!=null) { for (COSObjectable c : kids) { System.out.println("Kid Class: " + c.getClass()); } } } The results are: Name:Test Type:Btn Class:class org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDRadioCollection Kid Class: class org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDCheckbox Kid Class: class org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDCheckbox -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
