names
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-158?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
John Hewson closed PDFBOX-158.
------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
I'm fairly sure that this issue has been superseded by work on AcroForms in 2.0.

> In Acrobat 7, I can create form fields with identical
> names which will show the same entered value. I tried
> to rename fields to the same effect using PDFBox but it
> did not work. The PDF specification says there should
> be a construct where a parent of two nameless fields
> has this common name.
> Would this functionality be easy to implement in PDFBox?
