--- Original-Nachricht --- Von: Ranjeet Kuruvilla Betreff: Missing Field Values Datum: 07. Mai 2021, 11:02 An: [email protected] @font-face { font-family: telegrotesk-medium_normal; src: url("file:///android_asset/fonts/telegrotesk_normal.ttf");}html,body { font-family: "telegrotesk-medium_normal"; font-size: medium; color: #4b4b4b; width: 100%;} I am converting a byte[] to PDDocument and had a shocking experience: There were field values (not the fields themselves) missing. I compared PDFBox 2.0.23 to IText. Acroform acroform = PDDocument.load(source, password); HashMap<String, AcroFields.Item> fields2 = (new PDFReader(source, password)).getAcroFields().getFields(); // Fields from IText for(PDField field: acroform.getFields()) // Fields from PDFBox { System.out.println("Field " + field.getFullyQualifiedName() + " IText [" + acroform.getField(field.getFullyQualifiedName()) + "] PDFBox [" + field.getValueAsString() + "]"); } The result was occassionally akin to Field KEY IText [Value] PDFBox [] I expected it to be Field KEY IText [Value] PDFBox [Value] . It might be, that that particular PDF has Fields with the same key, because I did not experience that problem with other PDFs. May I ask whether there is a known bug with PDFBox 2.0.23, that allows for such a behaviour? How come, that PDFs created in C++ are no longer readable in PDFBox? How can I fix the bug? I do not wish to use IText to solve it.
