Please find attached a pdf file document generated using ASPOSE PDF API. aspose.pdf-17.3.0.jar
Although fields Field1[0]…to Field110[0] are present in this document it does not show up in the code below.

Aspose PDF Java Code:

Field[] pdfFields= pdfForm.getFields();

for(Field pdfField: pdfFields){
System.out.println(“pdfField.getPartialName()…”+pdfField.getPartialName());

Hi Imran,
I am unable to upload files. It comes with an error saying new user. The new support portal is absolutely frustrating and I have wasted valuable time on this.

is there any email id where I can email the files?

Hi,

Thank you for sending an input PDF. We have tested your scenario with the latest version 17.5 of Aspose.Pdf for Java API and could retrieve Field1[0] to Field110[0]. Please refer to the resultant text file: Results_17.6

Hi,
I could not find the 17.6 version of aspose pdf jar as it seems it is not released yet. I tried with 17.5 version and can still see the values are not reflecting. Can you please email me the link for 17.6 version of the jar or try the same in 17.5 version and let me know.

Thanks.

Hi,

We are sorry for the confusion caused. We have tested with the latest version 17.5 of Aspose.Pdf for Java API and shared a resultant text file in our previous post. Did you find that the values are not reflected in our shared resultant file? Are you getting the same results as we shared? Did you apply license before executing the test case with the latest version 17.5 of Aspose.Pdf for Java API? Your response is awaited.

Thanks, it seems the earlier test was loading temp license. The results are now showing after loading with the correct license.

While running locally everything works fine, however on the server it is giving this issue.

In my local Windows machine while running on Eclipse Juno IDE , I am not facing this error.
Could you please advise as to what caused the issue in the link pasted above? I did not find any answers to that post in Oct 2016.

Code:

InputStream inputStream = null;
com.aspose.pdf.Document newPdfDoc = null;
String documentGuid =null;
try {
inputStream = getDocumentAsStream(ceDocument);

 newPdfDoc= new com.aspose.pdf.Document(inputStream);	 
 

 Form pdfForm= newPdfDoc.getForm();	 	 
 Field[] pdfFields= pdfForm.getFields();
inputStream1= getDocumentAsStream(docShareholding);
				shareholdingPdf= new com.aspose.pdf.Document(inputStream1);
				newPdfDoc.getPages().delete(4);
				newPdfDoc.getPages().insert(4,shareholdingPdf.getPages());
				
				for(Field pdfField: pdfFields){
		System.out.println("pdfField.getPartialName()..."+pdfField.getPartialName());
		String partialName = pdfField.getPartialName();
	
		if(partialName.startsWith("ApplicationTemplate")){

			pdfField.setValue("RI Application RENEW");

@pexy_poulose,
Your source code is not in fully compilable form and loading two PDF documents, later using only one Document class instance to retrieve fields. After some modifications in the code, we tried to replicate this error but not successful. Please remove additional lines of code, compile it and share input PDF instead of the generated PDF document. Your response is awaited.
