----------------------------------------

works fine for me - sure that you are setting using "Universität"
{code:java}
    @Test
    public void testPDFBox5512() throws IOException
    {
        String sourceUrl = "https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/13049176/Unfallmeldung_Bildungseinrichtungen_bf_01-2020.pdf";

        PDDocument testPdf = null;
        try 
        {
            testPdf = PDDocument.load(new URL(sourceUrl).openStream());
            PDAcroForm acroForm = testPdf.getDocumentCatalog().getAcroForm();
            PDRadioButton field = (PDRadioButton) acroForm.getField("Art der Bildungseinrichtung");
            // print the potential values to set the different options
            System.out.println(field.getOnValues());
            field.setValue("Universität");
            testPdf.save("Unfallmeldung_Bildungseinrichtungen_bf_01-2020-filled.pdf");
        }
        finally
        {
            IOUtils.closeQuietly(testPdf);
        }
    }
{code}

> When setting a value of a PDRadioButton programmatically by calling setValue(value), it works well if value is just ASCII characters, but for example "Universität" is encoded internally as "Universit#e4t", neither approach works (the 2nd throws an exception). 
> The fix should write the correct encoded value, so that the respective options is displayed as checked in PDF viewers.
