I was forced to fill out an XFA form (that was pretending to be a PDF) from the Canadian government and the experience left me feeling completely subjugated. The lengths that Adobe go to to make sure that you have the most frustrating experience possible is unbelieveable. Searching for alternatives or help leads you to either: be forced to buy their premium software (or a licensed equivalent) or subscribe for Adobe’s online tools. Why is this propriety format allowed in government forms? What is so fantastic/irreplaceable about this format?
No, it got rid of all the dynamic parts. For my purposes they weren’t needed, as it was mostly for a poorly implemented embedded print button, and locking fields to certain data types.
Completely pointless, because most people here literally just print the pdf and fill it by hand still.
