Hello, in implementing PDF forms we're running into an issue with form fields with the same name but different casing. The field names should be case sensitive, but do not appear to be. I am sending two documents to the support email referencing this thread as an example of the behavior we're seeing. We would expect the fields where the text matches exactly to all update at once while the ones with different casing to update independently. Is there a setting we need to apply to get the desired behavior?
Thanks!

Re: Form Field Update Issue
Hello Mike,
Thank you for your message and PDF documents, we have reproduced the problem. You have problem because all interactive fields in PDF document "mixed_case_error.pdf" have the same field appearance. Due of this you see changes in all fields when you change single field.
In next minor version we will improve our algorithm and SDK will correctly handle this situation. Next minor version will be available next week.
Best regards, Alexander
