The only solution to PDFs with XFA forms I found when I last looked at the situation was using Adobe Reader. Otherwise, my experience with PDF (viewing and printing) on Debian has been good. Not using Windows, I only recently discovered XFS, MS's response to Adobe's PDF format. Another standard - but from a different organisation. As I said, everyone can have one. But who benefits?
