[BUG]: Not able to change text color of form fields in the PDF

pranavbansod commented 1 week ago

Description

Unidoc version: 3.57.0 I'm trying to fill pdf form from a json. I want to change text color of the new values which are filled from the Json. Reference Code: https://github.com/unidoc/unipdf-examples/blob/master/forms/pdf_form_fill_json.go

    // NOTE: To customize certain styles try:
    // style := fieldAppearance.Style()
    // style.CheckmarkGlyph = "a22"
    // style.AutoFontSizeFraction = 0.70
    // fieldAppearance.SetStyle(style)
    //
    // or for specifying a full set of appearance styles:
    // fieldAppearance.SetStyle(annotator.AppearanceStyle{
    //     CheckmarkGlyph:       "a22",
    //     AutoFontSizeFraction: 0.70,
    //     FillColor:            model.NewPdfColorDeviceGray(0.8),
    //     BorderColor:          model.NewPdfColorDeviceRGB(1, 0, 0),
    //     BorderSize:           2.0,
    //     AllowMK:              false,
    // })

I'm trying to set FillColor of AppearanceStyle to change the color. But it is not changing. I tried using different methods to change color

model.NewPdfColorDeviceGray(0.8)
model.NewPdfColorDeviceRGB(1, 0, 0)

The above methods I used are changing border color when set to BorderColor: model.NewPdfColorDeviceRGB(1, 0, 0). But the same is not happening when I try to change text color.

Expected Behavior

It should change the text color.

Here is the code snippet:

fieldAppearance.SetStyle(annotator.AppearanceStyle{
    CheckmarkGlyph:       "a22",
    AutoFontSizeFraction: 0.70,
    FillColor:            model.NewPdfColorDeviceGray(0.8),
    BorderColor:          model.NewPdfColorDeviceRGB(1, 0, 0),
    BorderSize:           2.0,
    AllowMK:              false,
})

Hi @pranavbansod, Thank you for reporting this issue. Currently, there is no rich text support for form field values in UniPDF, which means this is a feature request. We have created a ticket for this, and we will implement it in the future. We will write an update on this issue as soon as the feature gets released.
