Description

This is a general issue to gather input for potential enhancements to use PDFBox for forms creation and filling. Sub tasks to that issue will track individual enhancements which might result from that input.

Possible enhancements

• currently getWidget() only returns a single Widget but a field might have multiple > use getWidgets()
• adding a Widget to already existing ones could be simplified
• working with Widgets within RadioButtons might be enhanced to easier check/uncheck a Radiobutton option
• make it easier to set the fields value
