Merging PDF Pages: Empty FormFields

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi everyone,I’m working on merging two or more PDF pages into a single page using the "DrawCapturedPage" function. This works fine overall, but I’ve run into a problem:
The form fields that I previously filled using "SetFormFieldValueByTitle" remain empty in the merged PDF page.
Does anyone have an idea how I can ensure that the contents of the form fields are retained when merging the pages?
Thanks in advance for your help!

	Hi :) It's necessary that each form field has a unique name. If you put several pages with form fields on a new single page you should have an eye on this fact if you don't want to run into problems. Another point: What type of form fields you're using? Acro or xfa? QuickPDF doesn't offer much support using xfa.
	Cheers, Ingo
