Issue Description

Unable to parse the description for the checkbox. This is important info for someone who has no reference to the original template (PDF).

Code Snippet

import json
from PyPDFForm import PdfWrapper
pdf_form_schema = PdfWrapper("i-90.pdf").schema
print(json.dumps(pdf_form_schema, indent=4, sort_keys=True))

Sample of Json Output

{
        "P1_checkbox4[1]": {
            "type": "boolean"
        },
        "P1_checkbox4[2]": {
            "type": "boolean"
        },
        "P1_checkbox6c_Unit[0]": {
            "type": "boolean"
        },
        "P1_checkbox6c_Unit[1]": {
            "type": "boolean"
        },
        "P1_checkbox6c_Unit[2]": {
            "type": "boolean"
        }
}

PDF Form Template

I tried to extract the TU ('/TU'), but its not working

WIDGET_KEY_PATTERNS = [
    {T: True},
    {TU: True},
    {Parent: {T: True, TU: True}},
]

I see the description is present in widget instance

'/T': 'P1_Line3c_MiddleName[0]', '/TU': 'Part 1. Information About You. Your Full Name. 3. C. Enter Middle Name.'

Solved

Had to modify some files Created new function in template.py get_widget_description

        P1_checkbox4[0]": {
            "description": "Part 1. Information About You. Your Full Name. 4. Has your name legally changed since the issuance of your Permanent Resident Card? Select Yes. (Proceed to Item Numbers 5. A. through 5. C.).",
            "type": "boolean"
        },
        "P1_checkbox4[1]": {
            "description": "Part 1. Information About You. Your Full Name. 4. Has your name legally changed since the issuance of your Permanent Resident Card? Select No (Proceed to Item Numbers 6. A. through 6. I.).",
            "type": "boolean"
        },
        "P1_checkbox4[2]": {
            "description": "Part 1. Information About You. Your Full Name. 4. Has your name legally changed since the issuance of your Permanent Resident Card? Select Not Applicable - I never received my previous card. (Proceed to Item Numbers 6. A. through 6. I.).",
            "type": "boolean"
        },
