Is there full XFA support into SDK ?

Post by Stoil »

Hi, Stefan :)

I want to know if Form Calc is suported into SDK ?
I saw that when I put numbers in form loaded into PDF-XChange Editor - it calcs.
But when I use AX control or PDF-XChange Viewer the calculation does not work.

Hi Stoil,

Please attach a sample file for us to test with.
And the Viewer AX SDK is similar to what's under the end user PDF-XChange Viewer, the Editor is based on a totally rewritten core, and the SDK for it will be available next year. I do not have any specific date for the availability of the Editor SDK though.

Regards,
Stefan

Thank you, Stefan for your quick answer.
Here you are the form:
XTest Tables.pdf
You can fill second table and can see calculation using Adobe Reader and with PDF-XChange Editor.

Thank you in advance,
Stoil

Thanks for the sample Stoil.

Indeed the Editor handles such Form Calculations better. I will pass this to our dev team now and ask them if they plan to make any changes to the Viewer AX SDK to support the same, however their reply might be that you will need to wait for the Editor SDK to be available. In any case - I am going to check that for you!

Thank you so much, Stefan.
I am waiting for your answer and continue to check features of your AX control, because we want to use it in our web site too.

The Viewer (including SDK) does not support Form Calc in XFA.

Is there any plan to change Viewer AX SDK to support Form Calc in XFA?

Hi Stoil,

No, that is unlikely. We would be focusing on actually releasing the Editor SDK as soon as possible, and Form Calc will work in there. However that Editor SDK is still some time away.

Thank you, Stefan.
Then we can close this topic already, unfortunately without happy end :)
I wish your team nice work!
