[jira] [Updated] (PDFBOX-3646) Annotations parsed from XFDF
containing ampersand characters are not properly imported
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3646?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Kai Keggenhoff updated PDFBOX-3646:
-----------------------------------
Description:
Annotations containing "&" in their text are displayed incorrectly when parsed unmodified from XFDF (the ampersands are encoded as "&amp;" there) and added to a PDF document.
This occurs for both "text comment" and "text box" type annotations.
However, if the XFDF is modified by replacing "&amp;" with "&amp;amp;" prior to parsing, the imported annotations are then displayed correctly.
The attached code produces two pdf files. One is the PDF with the unmodified XFDF imported, two the PDF with the modifed XFDF.
A XFDF containing both a text box and text comment annotation is embedded in the source and attached as a separated file.
