MessageBox, TextReset and Encoding

[mbk_chilli]

Hello,

I programming a tool to convert the content of pdf-form-fields to xml.
I do this with the function "ExportFormToFDFFile" after this I convert it into xml.

My problems are ... after the convert I must view the same pdf-file without filled form fields. For this I Must do a reopen from the file, when I do this I get a MessageBox with the answer to save the changes in the pdf-file. Can I jump over the "SaveDialog"? Or can I reset the Text in the fields without a reopen?

Next problem is the Encoding of the "ExportFormToFDFFile"-Function. When the form fields have included "Umlaute" like ä,ü and ö I get only a quad in the file.


I´m really appreciative for help.

Hi mbk,

You cannot skip the "SaveDialog" to re-open the form without data in it.
This has to be done with a reset function.
However, our ActiveX doesn't have this feature now.
For the "Umlaute" problem, it might be caused by our internal encoding. We are still investigating it.
