You can't append an XFA form in the same way you append other documents. You need to embed it as an attachment, most likely as part of a Collection.

I understand that iText allows filling out XFA fields, but that is not what my application does. We have documents attached to entities such as claims, a user can select multiple documents and print them as a whole. We receive documents come from many sources and this is the first XFA documents we've had to deal with. I use iTextSharp to concatenate all of the documents together, documents can be in many formats; Microsoft Word, Excel, Tiff, and PFD. The way may code works is I create an iText Document and append selected documents to it, the code checks for pdf files that contain an AcroForm and trys to flatten these. As a work around I tried to skip flattening on XFA documents and add them directly to the iText Document, but this did not work also. Is there any way that iTextSharp can add an XFA form to an iText Document?

Are you by any chance trying to flatten an XFA form? Are you aware of the difference between AcroForm and XFA technology? What does your original PDF look like? How are you trying to fill it out? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ uberSVN's rich system and user administration capabilities and model configuration take the hassle out of deploying and managing Subversion and the tools developers use with it.
