Editable Underlined text not working in PDF-reader

Post by sebastian.schelin »

Hi!

I have created a mrt-file with some headings.
But I have problem with one of the headings or rather the textbox in that heading.
The textbox is connected to a data column.
This textbox have one underline.
When the textbox gets data from a xml the data is written with underline.
But when I make this editable the underline are shifted/tabbed to the right (when showed in PDF-reader).
If I edit, the underline disappears (when I´m using a PDF-reader (Adobe Reader XI)).
But if I set editable to false then everything looks fine, downside is I can´t edit in the PDF-reader.
The result should be this:
I want a editable underlined textbox, when edited in a PDF-reader the underlines should still be there.
So when the document is printed there are underlines.

How can this be solved?

Added some files as examples, could not add the xml-file for this project, get this warning: Error
The upload was rejected because the uploaded file was identified as a possible attack vector.
File PDF_Example.png a note has been done in our application and this is the result in a PDF-reader.
File PDF_EditedInPDF.png the editable area has been edited and the underlines disappear.

I have uploaded a xsd and mrt-file. But I couldn´t upload the xml-file. Get a warning that it could be a vector attack?
Note that in the preview in Stimulsoft, everything looks fine. I will also upload a screenshot how it looks in a PDF-reader.
