Hi,

I have an application using iText lib 5.0.4.0, using which I am filing in dynamic forms and generating PDF's and it's a web application. It was working pretty fine all of sudden it started throwing an error saying "Please Wait ... the adobe reader version you are using is older and you need to download and use newer version of the reader." I had downloaded the latest adobe reader but it didn't help of-course I can't tell this to my users though. I have printed some barcode on the form using this, the PDF is not generated when this error occurs but the barcode gets printed along with the error message... I am confused...

The form is created using Adobe Live Cycle Designer 9, is this why the problem is?


Yes, you're trying to fill out AcroForm fields in PDF syntax whereas the fields only exist in XML.

Do I have to use iText's latest version?


No, you need to use XFA Worker: http://demo.itextsupport.com/xfademo/

And if yes would it affect my application?


We're talking about two completely different technologies AcroForm vs. XFA, so yes, it would have an impact on your application.

Any direction in this would be of great help...


Before you fill out a form, you need to ask the form:
- are you an AcroForm?
- are you an XFA form?
If you're faced with an XFA form, you need to ask:
- are you a hybrid form (AcroForm + XFA)?
- are you a static or a dynamic XFA form?
In short: you have plenty of study work to do ;-)
