I have two pdf's with some form fields having identical names.

If I merge the two into one document, the second form field is removed along with any value set.

The only way I have found round this is to change the form field name in the second document before merging which is not ideal.

Is this a know issue and is there a solution?

Here is an example - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23788424/example.zip

There are two forms, both with "Class of shares.index" as the name. If you look at the result.pdf, the last page should be populated but the form fields have been removed.

Hi,

Yes. This is a known limitation of EO.Pdf. It can only merge form fields with different names.

Thanks!
