FormFieldNameConflict Class

Contains information about a form field name conflict that the API resolved during a PDF append operation.

Declaration

public class FormFieldNameConflict extends JavaObject

Remarks

Use AppendDocumentResult.getResolvedFieldNameConflicts() method to access form field name conflicts that the API resolved during the append/merge operation.

getTargetField() and getRenamedField() methods identify the target field and the source field with the new name respectively.

// Open a document to append.
try (PdfDocument source = new PdfDocument(
        FileChannel.open(Path.of("Source.pdf")))) {

    // Append the document to the current document.
    AppendDocumentResult result = pdfDocument.appendDocument(source);

    // Check for resolved form field name conflicts.
    for (FormFieldNameConflict conflict : result.getResolvedFieldNameConflicts()) {
        System.out.println("Target field: " + conflict.getTargetField());
        System.out.println("Renamed source field: " + conflict.getRenamedField());
    }
}
