> If I take an XFA PDF, remove the XFA form, rename one
> of the AcroForm fields and open the resulting PDF in
> Acrobat, the field name is garbled.
> To begin with, it seems the field name is UTF-16BE
> encoded. PDFBox writes the new /T entry in ISO-8859-1
> since it finds no character values larger than 255. if
> I change the source code to write UTF-16BE with the two
> prefix bytes 0xFF and 0xFE (not sure of the byte order
> here), the field name shows correctly in Acrobat.
