Hi, I m testing the pdfbox librairy and my principal interrest is to manage field into pdf document.
I juste want to implement the Cookbooks specific to this problem : http://www.docjar.com/html/api/org/apache/pdfbox/examples/fdf/SetField.java.html I have not any probleme to create a new documents or to open an existing, but, when i wan't add some information in a field I have the following problems : ----------------------------------------- Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: Error: Don't know how to calculate the position for non-simple fonts at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDAppearance.getTextPosition(PDAppearance.java:616) at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDAppearance.insertGeneratedAppearance(PDAppearance.java:380) at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDAppearance.setAppearanceValue(PDAppearance.java:281) at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDVariableText.setValue(PDVariableText.java:131) ----------------------------------------- I use exactly the same code as the exemple : ---------------------------------------------------------------- try { PDDocument pdf = PDDocument.load("testForm.pdf"); PDDocumentCatalog docCatalog = pdf.getDocumentCatalog(); PDAcroForm acroForm = docCatalog.getAcroForm(); PDField field = acroForm.getField("Date"); if( field != null ) { field.setValue("test"); }else { System.out.println("Champs INS not found\n"); } pdf.save("testB.pdf"); pdf.close(); } --------------------------------------- I have read brievely read the source code of this part of pdfbox but I have not find a solution to my problem. I just want to know is ths problem is normal (I do a bad use of pdfbox or I have forget anythink) or if the proble coold be appar with a "wrong" pdf file. Thanks a lot. Best regard Marc S.
