Hi Aandi,
I am working with pdfs. we need to prepare pdf in such a way that export pdf form data as xml has to work. means my pdf file should contain xfa. is it the only way or through javascript can we export pdf form data as xml. we are creating pdf files for our product by our own. we are not depending on any third party client or sdk. how to approach for this. I am not aware of programming xfa. Give me some suggestion.
Regards
c.siva jyothi
