Strange result processing Form fields when document contains two pages with same form fields:

SetFormFieldValue or SetFormFieldValueByTitle assign only checkboxes! Data in text fields are lost... with forms where no duplicate fields everything is working just fine. Any ideas how to solve this problem?

Thanks!

Additional information: FlattenFormField causes data to disappear, is there any way to Flatten all fields with the same name at the same time?

Hi Dany!
Is it a wonder? How you can get values from duplicate keys? I think every formfield must have a unique title.

Actually it works, if assign field once and instead of using FlattenFormField and Print combination just save the PDF and print it from Acrobat Reader. My problem is : how to make it work in first case.

Thanks!
