confirming, since I've experimented with setting the bg color using JavaScript, and Scribus/Scribus generated PDF forms resisted to obey:) Changing border/text color works fine. See the attached demo form test2.pdf and click on the "run external js" button to see, how the colors of the date field changes. The javascript used in this case is: var fld = this.getField("date1"); //Change border color fld.strokeColor = ["RGB",0.5,0.5,1]; //Change fill/background color //this won't work with Scribus! fld.Color = ["RGB",0,0,0.7]; //Change text color fld.textColor = ["RGB", 0.5, 0, 0.5]; BTW, haraldmebus, your PDF form proves pretty well the issue I've reported recently in 0005408 -- neither Adobe Reader 7.08/Cabaret on Linux nor Adobe Reader 7.05 on Windows diplays its form fields, checkboxes, and list boxes, your form doesn't contain any form elements. |

Since I'm still busy generating forms that we use in our company it's a valuable fact to have things confirmed and corrected. I appreciate the current development speed of Scribus and will do my part by testing and finding bugs :-)) BTW: I'm missing the feature of importing OO-forms into Scribus since we start using OO instead of ... |

Thats very odd, regenerated the PDF here with 1.3.3.9cvs and it works. Only thing i've change was that i've set all the Fonts to "Embedded" here. See the 133....-corrected.pdf |

Franz, I've opened your *corrected.pdf in Acroread 7.08, and see what I've got (screenshot kerning_kaputt.png of your pdf form attached). |

Thats weired, the same pdf works fine here BTw, i've added an extra check to the Preflighter that might help fixing the problems. |

Form field colors are showing fine in PDF exported from 1.3.3.10svn, but the kerning in the fields is definitely messed up. Could this be caused by the fix from tsdegeos relating to having to define /Helvetica ? Helvetica is shown as a font in the doc properties, but Acro Reader is using Arial. They are not metrically the same from what I understand. |

One other comment: I noticed that this doc has CMYK output and ICC profiles embedded. Odd to me for an interactive screen based PDF. |

tested, everything works fine (form fields background, kerning in form fields, unicode glyphs in form fields), well done jghali, closing |
