Adobe Reader Error: Expected a name object

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

After creating a standard for from your example and processing it with Aspose.Pdf I continue to ge get the error message box "Expected as name object." when submitting the form to a URL. I've attached both the original form edited in Adobe Acrobat Pro X and the updated form filled out using the Aspose library.

These are the steps I use for processing the forn:

1. Update the SubmitUrl using the FormEditor class

2. Do a content replace using the PdfContentEditor class

3. Set the Form fields using a Form class.

4. Send it to the browser.

To see the error all you need to do is hit the submit button on the out_not_linearized.pdf, allow the post and the error pops up.

Width regard to this issue, I have found a workaround so I guess I’m okay with it. For reference, this is the code changes I had to make:


var rd = pdfField as PdfForms.RadioButtonField;

foreach (PdfForms.Option o in rd.Options)

if (o.Name == data.Value)

o.Selected = true;
If this is a non-supported method let me know as I don’t want to be surprised again.

For reference, this PDFForm.FillField(fieldName, data.Value); no longer worked for radio buttons.
