[jira] [Comment Edited] (PDFBOX-3094) Merging PDFs with a Form is
not retaining the field name values
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3094?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14993874#comment-14993874 ]

Hi Maruan,
Thank You for your response. Attached is a zip file with pdfs (forms filled with fake data) that iam trying to merge.
Here is the sequence :
- FormA_Final.pdf filled with FormB_Final.pdf to create FormAB_Final.pdf (All the data in the forms that was filled before is retained)
- FormAB_Final.pdf is then merged with ExtForm1.pdf to create FormAB_Final_ExtForm1.pdf
In FormAB_Final_ExtForm1.pdf , you can see that the third page ( Section IV. PRIOR CONVICTION) lost the data. The form fields are blank and not editable.
The remaining pdf pages look good.
Let me know if you need any other details.
Thanks,
-Reddy

> Hi,
> We are using pdfbox-app-2.0.0. I have 3 pdf forms a.pdf, b.pdf & c.pdf. Each of these forms are filled before i attempt to merge them. I can merge any two of these in any combination and the results looks good.
> If i merge any of these forms to the previous merge result then iam loosing field name values in the result and also the form is not editable.
> Example:-
> a.pdf merged with b.pdf to get ab.pdf
> If i merge ab.pdf with a.pdf, the resultant merged form will not have form field values in all the pages. It does have form field values in some pages.
> Is there a limitation or restriction on merging same pdf forms more than once ?
> Thanks,
> -Reddy
