I have a small application, which cycles through PDF documents in a directory, and I’m trying to update the attributes of existing fields.
Disable multiline
Set font to Helvetica
turn bold off
This was the code for turning off multi line, but the changes do not stick in the new PDF document.
Can you advise me on where the issue might be?
Also on how to change font and bold setting so that they stick as well.
For Each formField As Aspose.Pdf.InteractiveFeatures.Forms.Field In frmEdit.Document.Form
Dim typeOfField As String
typeOfField = formField.GetType().Name
If typeOfField = "TextBoxField" Then
Dim tbf As TextBoxField
tbf = formField
tbf.Multiline = False
End If
Next
frmEdit.Save()
Dim dataDir As String = "C:\Pdf\test650\"
'Open document
Dim pdfDocument As Document = New Document(dataDir & "Input.pdf")
' Get particular form field from document
Dim field As Aspose.Pdf.Forms.TextBoxField = TryCast(pdfDocument.Form("Text1"), Aspose.Pdf.Forms.TextBoxField)
' Set the font information for form field, e.g. "Helvetica" or "Helvetica Bold"
field.DefaultAppearance = New DefaultAppearance("Helvetica", 10, System.Drawing.Color.Black)
field.Multiline = False
pdfDocument.Save(dataDir + "Output.pdf")
