Code used in testing:
{code}
public class PDFBoxMultilineTest {

    @Test
    public void testGeneration() throws IOException  {
        File template = FileBackedStringAssert.resolveResource("PDFBox_test.pdf");
        File result = File.createTempFile("test", ".pdf");

        PDDocument pdfDocument = PDDocument.load(template);

        // get the document catalog
        PDAcroForm acroForm = pdfDocument.getDocumentCatalog().getAcroForm();
        fillField(acroForm, "multiline", "1\n2\n3\n4");

        // Save and close the filled out form.
        pdfDocument.save(result);
        pdfDocument.close();
        Desktop.getDesktop().open(result);
    }

    private void fillField(PDAcroForm acroForm, String fieldName, String value) throws IOException {
        PDField field = acroForm.getField(fieldName);
        field.setValue(value);
        field.setReadOnly(true);
    }
}
{code}

> I have problem with multiline fields in form filling. It seems that if i have value with newlines "\n" rendering won't work correctly. Every line seems to be rendered over previous line. 
> E.g. 
> {code}
> value = "1\n2\n3\n4"
> {code}
> will be rendered so than every number are rendered over each other but what I'm expecting would be something like:
> {code}
> 1
> 2
> 3
> 4
> {code}
