Good morning,
I think "Is not a limitation"; It's the new form especification that is applied
with LiveCycle Designer 8.0
http://www.nabble.com/extent-of-XFA-support-in-itext-t3336804.html
If you save it as Acrobat 8.0 (Static) PDF Form, you can access to your form
fields, but It's probably necessary make the same change in XFA (XML) form.
With the Dinamic one, you can access to your XFA form fields via:
XfaForm xfa_form = new XfaForm(reader);
XfaForm.Xml2SomTemplate templ = xfa_form.getTemplateSom();
org.apache.xerces.dom.DeferredElementNSImpl xfa_form_fieldX = null;
if (templ!=null){
HashMap templ_hash = templ.getName2Node();
xfa_form_fieldX = (org.apache.xerces.dom.DeferredElementNSImpl)
templ_hash.get(form_fieldX_Key);
}
With 'xfa_form_fieldX' (if is not NULL) you can now work with XML tools!
