I am having an issue consistently checking checkbox fields. Sometimes they work fine and other times they don’t. Enclosed is a PDF form (New Account Application.pdf) that has a number of other fields, but I key in on a set of checkboxes to check them all and the end result is that most are checked, some are not and I cannot figure out why. Also enclosed is the resulting output PDF file (New Account Application_OUTPUT_BAD.pdf). On page 2, the Net Worth and Estimated Liquid Assets sections of the FINANCIAL INFORMATION areas are supposed to all be checked.
Below is some sample code - we are using .Net PDF version 7.6.0.0. Would appreciate any explanation of what I may be doing wrong in either the setup of the form fields in the PDF or in my code. If there is a bug in the Aspose.Net PDF library, would appreciate a fix for this.

Rob Cyrier
