--- Comment #10 from Andrew DeMarsh <andrew.d...@gmail.com> ---
Regarding your "reality check" does the support depend on this money due to
some technical resource cost or for you to consider supporting it. Telling
government agencies to regenerate millions of forms in a new format is like
asking all of kde to switch to meson overnight when it adds very little to the
end product beyond being a newer build system. Asking them to stop producing
them also doesn't eliminate old/legacy docs. I am not trying to be critical of
anyone but I have never seen an explanation on why this is a problem and it
isn't very fair that when someone Google's the "XFA forms are not supported"
error they end up here with no explanation other than "ask poppler to support
it and then we can" and now "it'll cost money" but no mention of why.

Comment # 9 on bug 263042 from Albert Astals Cid Just a reality check, XFA
forms are 99.98% never going to be supported unless you come by a few hundred
thousands euros. XFA is also deprecated in PDF 2.0 so whoever is giving you
those kind of files, you should tell them to stop producing them.
