Typo indeed

 

Wasn't aware of this demo. Thanks.

Ran the form through XFA Worker, but the check box fields do not appear in
the XFA stream so I can't change then that way either.

I have an XFA form (from someone else)

 It is set to default off, and the bindings are 1 for on and 0 for off, and
appears to be a regular checkbox field in LiveCycle

 If I do form.getAppearanceStates(field) it just returns "1"

 If I do form.setAppearance( field, "1") nothing is set.


Let's assume that setAppearance() is a typo and that you really meant to
write setField(). In any case: You're using methods that are meant for
AcroForm fields on an XFA form. That's not going to work. Forget all you
know about AcroForm-related methods, and manipulate the form on the XFA
level.

Do you need to flatten the form? Test XFA Worker online (XFA Worker is a
closed source product).

Do you want the form to remain interactive? Filling out an XFA form is done
by injecting XML, not by using setField() methods.
