How does one get the Export Value of a CheckBox from a PDF file using the Aspose.Pdf.Kit library? The FormFieldFacade.ExportItems is null as is the FormFieldFacade.Items property for the CheckBoxes loaded from the attached PDF. I can extract the values for a TextBox, Radio, ComboBox, and ListBox using the appropriate methods/properties, but can't find a way to get the Export Value from a CheckBox.
Hi Joe,
The Items and ExportItems properties work for Combo Box, Radio Buttons, and List Box fields; that is, the fields which represent values as list of items. However, if you want to get currently selected value of the Check Box field, you may use GetField method of Form class.
I hope this helps. If you have any further questions, please do let us know.
Regards,
I appreciate the quick response, but that doesn't answer my question. I am talking about the value that one can set from within Adobe Acrobat by right clicking on a form field, specifically a CheckBox, and selecting the Options tab. On that tab, there is a field called "Export Value," which creates an entry in the PDF like below for the "Red" CheckBox item in the sample PDF that I provided. Is there any way to get the text of these name objects?
