Hi Andreas,

Thanks for helping out with the issues I've created for PDFBox.

I would really appreciate it if you could help me out with the
following: I'm trying to add form fields to a file using PDFBox and am
having a lot of problems with it. I was unable to find any real examples
on how it should be done, neither online or in the example packages.
The closest I've come so far is in the attached file. When I open the
result PDF in Acrobat, though, I can't see the field. When I open the JS
console it says "Some fields are malformed, and may not work as
expected. Please contact the author for a fix".
I am then able to execute getField("Text1").value and get the value I've
set, but most other properties and methods fail.

Any help you can offer will be greatly appreciated, and I might even
create an example class for the next release of PDFBox, if you think
it's a good idea...
I'm not an acroform expert but you have to link the new field to the page it should be rendered on. I guess it has to be done by using an annotation widget.

A simple example woiuld be great.
