Hi,
I am trying to get the form field names and values of some signed PDF
(tried with several PDF files) and I cannot see them when using
getChildren() below.
I only see the signature field!!!
this is the OUTPUT i get from the code below:
FullyQualifiedName: ENVELOPEID_47C2241C2E9B492B892DA48C8ED1BE01
Value:
org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.digitalsignature.PDSignature@d041cf
Any suggestion is welcome on how to access the form fields.
Here is my code:
=========================
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.List;
import org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument;
import org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocumentCatalog;
import org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDAcroForm;
import org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDField;
import org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDNonTerminalField;
public class PdfboxGetFormFields {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
PDDocument document = PDDocument.load(new File("myfile.pdf"));
PDDocumentCatalog docCatalog = document.getDocumentCatalog();
PDAcroForm acroForm = docCatalog.getAcroForm();
List<PDField> fields = acroForm.getFields();
for (PDField field : fields)
{
list(field);
}
document.close();
}
static void list(PDField field)
{
System.out.println("FullyQualifiedName:
"+field.getFullyQualifiedName());
System.out.println("Value: "+field.getValueAsString());
if (field instanceof PDNonTerminalField)
{
PDNonTerminalField nonTerminalField = (PDNonTerminalField)
field;
for (PDField child : nonTerminalField.getChildren())
{
list(child);
}
}
}
}
