Hi,
I have used PDFBox to create a .pdf file from a .pdf file that I
created in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC version 2019.021.20061.
Here is the process I've been working on:
1. Create "template" .pdf file in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC
2. Run my Java program that loads the .pdf file, populates its form
fields, and saves it to a new file on my local disk.
3. Open the new .pdf file in Adobe Acrobat Reader.
The .pdf file that I created has a date field that doesn't display the
date after I run PDFBox to set all of the fields in the file. The
other fields, including a text field, a list box, a combo box, a check
box, and a radio button group all get populated, and display correctly
in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC version 2019.021.20061 (same version as
Acrobat Pro).
When I click in the date field, the date appears. But, when I move
the focus away from the date field, the date disappears.
So, it tried setting the AcroForm's "NeedAppearances" property to
true, like this: acroForm.setNeedAppearances(true). That makes the
date in the date field display when I open the new .pdf file, but it
has an unwanted side effect. When I close the document, without
making any changes, I get a message box that asks me if I want to save
the changes before closing.
Does anyone have any insight? I have attached the output file, which
doesn't have "NeedAppearances" set to true (test.pdf). I have also
attached my "template" file (Acrobat_DC.pdf).
Thanks!
