I have a PDF which doesn't contain XFA data. What I want to do is, create a XFA Form template programmatically (not by using Adobe LiveCycle or similar program) and then embed it to the PDF, then fill the XFA Form.
Is this possible? Or do I have to use Adobe LiveCycle?
EDIT
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFA#Profiles in this wiki link it says following:
XFAF (XFA Foreground) subset - (introduced in XFA 2.5) - a form in which each page of the XFA form overlays a PDF background. It can be used only for static XFA forms. This architecture uses only a subset of XFA. It can be packaged inside a regular PDF document or as a standalone XDP file with embedded PDF. In XFAF each XFA field corresponds to a PDF interactive field (AcroForm field).
So I believe, what I ask is possible, but currently I don't know how...
XFA was marked as deprecated inside the PDF specification also with Support of Adobe in upcoming ISO PDF 2.0 standard. You shouldn't rely on technology, which is outdated. So please use normal PDF forms, but not XFA form.
