Problem with PDF form viewing

Post by aisoft »

Hello,
could you please look at the file attached and tell me why it is not displayed correctly in your Viewer component ? File has 3 pages of form with lot of fields, but in your Viewer, only one page with informational text (about upgrading Acrobat) is displayed.

This PDF file contains Dynamic XFA forms which are not supported by the Viewer. For now viewer supports only static XFA forms without scripts. Full support of XFA is planned to be implemented into the next major release of the Viewer.

Is it possible to extract/change the XML file from that XFA form with your component (ie. running some JavaScript or any other way) ?
What time do you plan to make next major version ?

No, there is no way to extract XFA form from a PDF using the viewer.

It has been announced that version 3 of the viewer will be released sometime in 2010.
