I've been trying for several days now to get this to work and I'm still
stuck. Basically all of my work has centered around the XfaForm class.
It is easy to construct and manipulate the XML data within the XfaForm
class but how do I save that *back* to the PDF? I see a Again, my
goal is to take a PDF and do the same thing that
AcroFields.mergeXfaData() did but with a dynamic PDF 1.7 in this case.
I apologize if I missed something obvious but I just can't seem to see
what it is.

I'll let Bruno and Paulo comment on the specific names of the APIs -
but there exist in iText a set of APIs that do form filling on
XFA-based PDFs instead of on AcroForm-based PDFs.

Sorry for my ignorance, but what do you mean by the phrase
"XFA-native APIs"? Since you use the plural, can you list two such APIs?

LONGER SUPPORTS the "mirroring" of XFA fields into AcroFields in
dynamic documents - which is why you can no longer use the method
you've chosen on dynamic documents.
You need to switch to using the XFA-native APIs.
