              ICEpdf does not support the editing of PDF documents but perhaps we can review displaying the current values.

              The PDF in question is technically malformed but interestingly enough is generated by acrobat. Appearance streams for annotations must be specified as a xObject. The PDF in question uses plain old Stream objects to specify the annotation appearance content.

              I have test code in place that will render the "Widget" annotation. A little more work is needed to be done to limit the number of time we parse the paintable shapes.

              One thing to note about the appearance is that only the text is visible, the purple border and background is painted by the Acrobat.

              Committed to the trunk -r 25901. Still need to branch 4.2.2 and add code there as well in prep for a 4.2.3 release.

              No further feedback from the client so I assume we're in good shape. Closing.
