[PDF Tools Utils] PDT Tools - Field is Read Only error

I'm trying to write a process that fills out IRS form 720 and then downloads it.  I've downloaded the form from the IRS website, added it as a resource and been able to get the fields list and assign a few of their values. 

But when I attempt to set the form field values, I get a Field is Read Only error.

I'm able to fill and save the pdf with Adobe, so why can't I set the data fields here?

Thanks.

I'm attaching the IRS form.

Hi @Jeff Kest
We have updated the component, as now it working correctly.
As it was an issue with the file as it has protected fields in the PDF so we "Added support for unsetting PDF /Ff flags"

So try the demo
