Hi Tilman,
I'm using PDFBox version 2.0.17. Here is my code:
public void fillForm(Map<String, String> formMap)
{
File file = new File(myFile);
try (PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load(file)) {
PDDocumentCatalog docCatalog = doc.getDocumentCatalog();
PDAcroForm acroForm = docCatalog.getAcroForm();
if (acroForm != null) {
for (Map.Entry<String, String> entry : formMap.entrySet()) {
String key = entry.getKey();
PDField field = acroForm.getField(key);
if (field instanceof PDVariableText) {
if (field instanceof PDTextField) {
PDTextField textField = PDTextField.class.cast(field);
textField.setValue(formMap.get(key));
} else if (field instanceof PDChoice) {
PDChoice choice = PDChoice.class.cast(field);
choice.setValue(formMap.get(key));
}
} else if (field instanceof PDCheckBox) {
PDCheckBox checkBox = PDCheckBox.class.cast(field);
boolean value = Boolean.valueOf(formMap.get(key));
if (value) {
checkBox.check();
} else {
checkBox.unCheck();
}
} else if (field instanceof PDRadioButton) {
PDRadioButton radioButton = PDRadioButton.class.cast(field);
radioButton.setValue(formMap.get(key));
}
}
File outputFile = new File("test.pdf");
doc.save(outputFile);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new AssistBusinessException(e);
}
}
}
