The XML data that represents the form is not necessary the content of the PDF - it's the form aspects (fields, etc.). You can read that part by getting the data from the /Catalog/XFA value in the PDF. However, that's NOT content - and it's only valid for these newer PDFs.
And iText doesn't support the filling of such forms. I wonder about one thing: we can retrieve the XFA from /Catalog/XFA, we can remove/add an XFA entry to the Catalog. Does this mean we could fill a PDF with an XFA form if we threw some time at it studying the XFA XML?
