Hello,
I've converted a 1.8.9 project to the latest 2.0.0 shapshot (as of 20150716).
This project fill's in acroForm fields and then saves to a new file.
1. I'm having difficulty in assigning the selected value to a PDChoice field. In 1.8.9, I was able
to use .setValue(strValueGoesHere) as long as the item already existed. When it didn't exist, i
would add it first. In version 2.0.0, using .setValue(strValueGoesHere) throws an exception
"not implemented". Then I proceeded to try using .setSelectedOptionsIndex but that throws
the following exception "Setting the indices is not allowed for choice fields not allowing
multiple selections."
How should I be setting this PDChoice field?
We don’t support generating the appearance for a choice field yet, but you can
generate forms without appearances (as 1.8.9 does) by first calling
setNeedAppearances(false) on the PDAcroForm.
2. Additionally, I've noticed the runtime execution time has dramatically
increased when saving the document. The following lines of code only took 0
seconds previously and now takes 14 seconds;
java.util.Date startTime2 = new java.util.Date();
pdfDocument.save(dest);
pdfDocument.close();
java.util.Date endTime2 = new java.util.Date();
System.out.println("Save Time: " +
((endTime2.getTime()-startTime2.getTime())/1000));
Andreas, any thoughts?
No, but it looks like Jarrod already answered that question in his later
posting, seems to be related to the creation of the appearance stream.

3. Also, I'm getting the following log entries during runtime although I'm
guessing they are not very important;
Jul 16, 2015 1:43:30 PM java.util.prefs.WindowsPreferences <init>
WARNING: Could not open/create prefs root node Software\JavaSoft\Prefs at root
0x80000002. Windows RegCreateKeyEx(...) returned error code 5.
That’s PDFBox trying to create a local cache of font files and failing. I’m not
sure why, looks like the reason is Windows-specific. It might take a few extra
seconds to load PDFBox without the cache, but it not a problem.
Jul 16, 2015 1:43:30 PM org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDType1Font <init>
WARNING: Using fallback font ArialMT for base font ZapfDingbats
I’m surprised that PDFBox doesn’t find a better substitute for ZapfDingbats,
enable TRACE logging and post the log file.

Thanks,
