Post subject:  Questions about form field processing

Hi,

I am new to PdfSharp and have two questions concerning form field processing:

1)
I create a text form field usind Adobe Acrobat. I set font size 16 and color blue on the field. Then I fill the field using PdfSharp and save it to another file like this

Code:
Dim pdfdokument As PdfDocument = PdfReader.Open("C:\ge1.pdf", PdfDocumentOpenMode.Modify)
    Dim pdfAcroForm As PdfAcroForm = pdfdokument.AcroForm
    Dim fields As PdfAcroField.PdfAcroFieldCollection = pdfAcroForm.Fields
    Dim field As PdfTextField = fields("NameVornameVN")

    field.Text = "Hello World"
    pdfdokument.Save("C:\ge_filled_pdfsharp.pdf")


Problem is, the text shows up in the document, but the beforementioned formatting (font size, color) is not used, different font size and color is displayed.

Only when I click the field, the text changes to the correct formatting. Ths is something i don't understand. When the text is deselected, it changes back to the wrong formatting.



2)
When merging documents, fom fields are lost. Is there a plan to fix this?

I have the same issue as number 1. It is extremely strange.
