I am trying to decide whether to stick with AcroForms for a while (after all, they aren't dead yet, are they?) or make the LJMP (long and painful jump) to LiveCycle forms. My application inserts interactive fields into PDF documents, as they are programmatically created. I am pretty much familiar with the tools used to create the AcroForms, from Adobe and 3rd. parties, but am clueless when it comes to XFA technology. This issue is very similar to the use of XMP to replace the Info dictionary. In this case of metadata, Adobe nicely provides the XMP toolkit, which is multiplatfom -not to mention free of charge. Is there an XFA SDK that allows me to create XFA forms? I seem to recall that the only way to deal with XFA forms is by licensing Adobe's server? TIA, -RFH
