Reading Form Values

The Java FormExamples class demonstrates the main form-processing workflows exposed by the Facades API.

Get Field Values

Use FormExamples.inspectFormFields(...) to inspect field names and their current values.

public static void inspectFormFields(Path inputFile) {
    Form form = new Form();
    try {
        form.bindPdf(inputFile.toString());
        System.out.println("Field names: " + Arrays.toString(form.getFieldNames()));
        for (String fieldName : form.getFieldNames()) {
            System.out.println(fieldName + " = " + form.getField(fieldName));
        }
    } finally {
        form.close();
    }
}
