How to view ea form /XFA form in Web viewer

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

Hi all,

I have so many PDF forms in our application.

These PDF forms are generated/PDF produced using

  1. Aspose.pdf for.NET version 21.9.0

  2. LifeCycle Forms ES3 by Adobe

  3. Forms in Adobe Experience ManagerPDF forms

These PDF forms are EA/XFA forms, which contain some fields: radio buttons, check boxes, and submit buttons.

I need to view all these PDF files in our web application.

Will the Aspose library support these files for viewing in the PDF viewer.

Please help me here to resolve this issue or provide me with some workaround for this.variation_v1.24.0.0.pdf (276.6 KB)
Attached one sample files.

I have tired this approach but it did not work for our files.

Let me know if you required more information.

Thanks
Vinay

You can convert your PDF to HTML using Aspose.PDF. You can try the online PDF to HTML converter to check the HTML output.

If you face any issue, please attach your expected output HTML here for our reference. We will then provide you more information on it.

I do not want to use any other desktop application to view this form.
I need to view the PDF form in Web Application(using any library).

Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and browser PDF viewer are different viewers. You can convert PDF to HTML to view in browser. However, the better output will be browser PDF viewer.

If you open this PDF in browser, the output will be same (the error message).

Could you please share the complete detail of your use case? We will then provide you more information about your query.
