Description

1. Create a new, blank PDF in Acrobat.
2. Add a text form field and set the contents to "some text".
3. Run ExportFDF and then ImportFDF on this file.

The result is a messed-up text box. See the attached files.
Also I've noticed that the FDF created by PDFBox is very different to the one created by Acrobat.

Here's my code:
ExportFDF.main(new String[]

{"c:/gilad/input/test.pdf", "c:/gilad/input/test.fdf"}

);
ImportFDF.main(new String[]

{"c:/gilad/input/test.pdf", "c:/gilad/input/test.fdf", "c:/gilad/input/result.pdf"}

);
