=head1 SYNOPSIS

    #!/usr/bin/perl -w

    use strict;
    use CAM::PDFTaxforms;
    my $pdf = CAM::PDFTaxforms->new('f1040.pdf') or die "Could not open PDF ($!)!";
    my $page1 = $pdf->getPageContent(1);

    #DISPLAY THE LIST NAMES OF EDITABLE FIELDS:
    my @fieldnames = $pdf->getFormFieldList();
    print "--fields=".join('|',@fieldnames)."=\n";

    #UPDATE THE VALUES OF ONE OF THE FIELDS AND A COUPLE OF THE CHECKBOXES:
    $pdf->fillFormFields('fieldname1' => 'value1', 'fieldname2' => 'value2');

    #WRITE THE UPDATED PDF FORM TO A NEW FILE NAME:
    $pdf->cleanoutput('f1040_completed.pdf');

Many example programs are included in this distribution to do useful
tasks.  See the C subdirectory.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This package is a wrapper for and creates a L object.  The
difference is that some method functions are overridden to fix some
issues and add some new features, namely to better handle IRS tax
forms, many of which have checkboxes, in addition to numeric and text
fields.  Several other patches have also been applied, particularly
those provided by CAM::PDF bugs #58144, #122890 and #125299.
Otherwise, it should work well as a full drop-in replacement for
CAM::PDF in the API.

CAM::PDF description:

This package reads and writes any document that conforms to the PDF
specification generously provided by Adobe at
L
(link last checked Oct 2005).

The file format through PDF 1.5 is well-supported, with the exception
of the "linearized" or "optimized" output format, which this module
can read but not write.  Many specific aspects of the document model
are not manipulable with this package (like fonts), but if the input
document is correctly written, then this module will preserve the
model integrity.

The PDF writing feature saves as PDF 1.4-compatible.  That means that
we cannot write compressed object streams.  The consequence is that
reading and then writing a PDF 1.5+ document may enlarge the resulting
file by a fair margin.

This library grants you some power over the PDF security model.  Note
that applications editing PDF documents via this library MUST respect
the security preferences of the document.  Any violation of this
respect is contrary to Adobe's intellectual property position, as
stated in the reference manual at the above URL.

Technical detail regarding corrupt PDFs: This library adheres strictly
to the PDF specification.  Adobe's Acrobat Reader is more lenient,
allowing some corrupted PDFs to be viewable.  Therefore, it is
possible that some PDFs may be readable by Acrobat that are illegible
to this library.  In particular, files which have had line endings
converted to or from DOS/Windows style (i.e. CR-NL) may be rendered
unusable even though Acrobat does not complain.  Future library
versions may relax the parser, but not yet.

This version is HACKED by Jim Turner 09/2010 to enable the fillFormFields()
function to also modify checkboxes (primarily on IRS Tax forms).

=head1 EXAMPLES

See the I subdirectory in the source tree.  There is a sample
blank 2018 official IRS Schedule B tax form and two programs:
I, which fills in the form using the sample input data
text file I, and creates a filled in version of the
form called I.  The other program (I)
can read the data filled in the filled in form created by the other
program and displays it as output.

To run the programs, switch to the I subdirectory in the source
tree and run them without arguments (ie. B<./dof1040sb.pl>).

To see the names of the fields and their current values in a PDF form,
such as the aforementioned tax form, run the included program, ie:
I.

Note: 'clean' as in cleansave() and cleanobject() means write a fresh
PDF document.  The alternative (e.g. save()) reuses the existing doc
and just appends to it.  Also note that 'clean' functions sort the
objects numerically.  If you prefer that the new PDF docs more closely
resemble the old ones, call preserveOrder() before cleansave() or
cleanobject().

=head2 For additional methods and functions, see the L documentation.

=head1 METHODS

=over

=item $doc = CAM::PDFTaxforms->new($content)

=item $doc = CAM::PDFTaxforms->new($ownerpass, $userpass)

=item $doc = CAM::PDFTaxforms->new($content, $ownerpass, $userpass, $prompt)

=item $doc = CAM::PDFTaxforms->new($content, $ownerpass, $userpass, $options)

Instantiate a new CAM::PDFTaxforms object.  C<$content> can be a document
in a string, a filename, or '-'.  The latter indicates that the document
should be read from standard input.  If the document is password
protected, the passwords should be passed as additional arguments.  If
they are not known, a boolean C<$prompt> argument allows the programmer to
suggest that the constructor prompt the user for a password.  This is
rudimentary prompting: passwords are in the clear on the console.

This constructor takes an optional final argument which is a hash
reference.  This hash can contain any of the following optional
parameters:

=over

=item prompt_for_password => $boolean

This is the same as the C<$prompt> argument described above.

=item fault_tolerant => $boolean

This flag causes the instance to be more lenient when reading the
input PDF.  Currently, this only affects PDFs which cannot be
successfully decrypted.

=back

=item $hashref = $doc->getFieldValue('fieldname1' [, fieldname2, ... fieldnameN ])

(CAM::PDFTaxforms only, not available in CAM::PDF)

Fetches the corresponding current values for each field name in the
argument list.  Returns a reference to a hash containing the field
names as keys and the corresponding values.  If a field does not
exist or does not contain a value, an empty string is returned in
the hash as it's value.  If called in array / hash context, then
a list of field names and values in the order (fieldname1, value1,
fieldname2, value2, ... fieldnameN valueN) is returned.

      next LOOP1  unless ($objnode);

      # This read-only dict includes inherited properties
      my $propdict = $self->getFormFieldDict($objnode);

      # This read-write dict does not include inherited properties
      my $dict = $self->getValue($objnode);

               ? $dict->{AS}->{value} : $dict->{V}->{value};
      } else {
      	  $fieldHashRef->{$fieldName} = $dict->{V}->{value};
      }
   }
   return $fieldHashRef  unless (wantarray);  #RETURN HASHREF IN SCALAR CONTEXT.
   my @fieldValues;
   foreach my $fieldName (@fieldNames)   #BUILD ARRAY FROM HASH TO RETURN IN ARRAY CONTEXT:
   {
      push (@fieldValues, $fieldName, $fieldHashRef->{$fieldName});
   }
   return @fieldValues;
}

=item $doc->fillFormFields($name => $value, ...)

=item $doc->fillFormFields($opts_hash, $name => $value, ...)

Set the default values of PDF form fields.  The name should be the
full hierarchical name of the field as output by the
getFormFieldList() function.  The argument list can be a hash if you
like.  A simple way to use this function is something like this:

    my %fields = (fname => 'John', lname => 'Smith', state => 'WI');
    $field{zip} = 53703;
    $self->fillFormFields(%fields);

NOTE:  For checkbox fields specify any value that is I in Perl
(ie. 0, '', or I), or any of the strings:  'Off', 'No', or
'Unchecked' (case insensitive) to un-check a checkbox, or any other
value that is I in Perl to check it.  Checkbox fields are only
supported by CAM::PDFTaxforms and was the original reason for
creating it.

If the first argument is a hash reference, it is interpreted as
options for how to render the filled data:

=over

=item background_color =E 'none' | $gray | [$r, $g, $b]

Specify the background color for the text field.
