Attachment: 041617_filled_out.pdf
I've only looked at a handful of files that contain xfa...this metadata is
entirely new to me. The files I've looked at come from govdocs1 and are fairly
old by now.
In the attached, I've added content to the forms and saved the document.
With the patch, I'm getting all of the boilerplate from the xfa extraction, but
I'm not getting any content from the form because it isn't in
{{<(speak|text|exData)>}} elements. However, with our old code, I am seeing
the entered data, e.g. {{my_exhibitor}}.
Is this PDF storing the contents of the form in both the xfa _and_ in the
traditional AcroForm?
I imagine that won't happen in all PDFs, and there will be an either/or?
To avoid duplication of content, do we want to skip processing of AcroForm data
if XFA exists? Will we miss anything?
[~tilman], have you worked with XFA? Any recommendations for pulling as much
info as we can without duplication?
We could make this configurable, of course. :)
