XFA forms in PDF are not opening up after conversion

Aspose.PDF Product Family
#1

Hi,
I am using the below code to convert the XFA form to a regular PDF. But the resultant PDF is empty.
I have attached the XFA form.
I am using aspose-pdf-22.9-jdk16 for JAVA

// Load dynamic XFA form
Document document = new Document("XFAform.pdf");
// Set the form fields type as standard AcroForm
document.getForm().setType(FormType.Standard);
// Save the resultant PDF
document.save("C:/temp/<a class="attachment" href="/uploads/discourse_instance3/73788">Purchase_Order.pdf</a> (142.9 KB)
 Standard_AcroForm.pdf");

@sushma1509,

Are you sure you attached the right document?

Can you use the latest aspose version, currently it is the 23.1.

I executed the following code and nothing was lost. But the PDF didnt have form objects. So I am guessing you attached the wrong PDF.

public void MainCode()
{
    PartialPath = $@"{prefixPath}\Conversions\XfaConversionSample"; // Location of your input/output files

    LoadLicence(); // Load your License

    var doc = DocumentGet(); // Read your document

    Logic(doc);

    doc.Save($"{PartialPath}_output.pdf");
}

private void Logic(Document doc)
{
    // Set the form fields type as standard AcroForm
    doc.Form.Type = FormType.Standard;
}

@sushma1509,

Can you please verify your attachments? You can drag and drop pdf files. But you seem to upload the wrong ones once again.

Hi @carlos.molina
I am not sure what am I missing here. I am uploading it using the Upload button.
Now I have dragged and dropped. Also, please note that Purchase_Order will open only in FireFox , not in chrome
