Hi All,
I need PDF Editor that is Dynamic XFA friendly.
And example file would be:
https://tax.nv.gov/uploadedFiles/taxnvgov/Content/Forms/Sales_and_Use_Tax_Re...
PDF Studio has no Dynamic XFA support and Master PDF Editor only has limited support (fields won't update).
And I don't mind paying for it, IF IT WORKS!
Many thanks, -T

Use google to search "xfa support linux"
Hint: The first suggestion works. (Well, at least the first one I was presented).

That search comes up with a deb format file. If you add "rpm" to that, you get Master PDF Editor. Is it possible that there is a version of PDF Editor that is more recent than the google reply? I haven't tried this lately, so I don't know what editor I used "back when" or if I just downloaded the form, filled it out in ink and mailed it! (PDF Editor has just come out with an update. Maybe that works?) --doug

I too am proponent of trying things for oneself.
The download of the tar version of Master PDF editor works fine. The rpm package has an issue.

Oh, I meant to add, that issue is easy to overcome.

I am not having issue with Master PDF Editor's RPM and have been using Master PDF for years.
The form I posted, it does not update the totals correctly.
If you are having issue with the RPM, maybe you forgot to add ".sh" at the end of the program name?
/opt/master-pdf-editor-5/masterpdfeditor5.sh
If you leave the .sh off, Qt libraries won't load correctly

For the short time I played with the form I found no errors updating the totals. You should probably report the issue to their support email address.

/opt/master-pdf-editor-5/masterpdfeditor5.sh

A properly packaged application should not require one to fiddle with it to get it to work from the command line. Command completion should just work.
It gets called just fine from the menu or desktop file as those do reference the shell script which does use the library path variable. yuck.

"Well, there is basically no way for us to extend support because XFA was never openly documented.

They changed the way they did the .desktop file and many system did not catch the update.

It has to do with private Qt libraries

I did...
01F 5000 02F 123.23 05F 6000 14F 525 17F 666
Totals to 12314.23

Yes, I know. This very thing was talked about a while ago in a thread about pdfs.
The tar file executable uses the system supplied Qt Libraries just fine.
So, if one wants to package an application but include Qt libs because they want to be sure it will run they should be able to detect if the private libs are needed or not and call the appropriate binary.
So, like firefox, the executable called from the command line should be a script to do what is needed.

Hi Ed,
Would you feed comfortable if I eMailed you an offending PDF?
I've no objection. Or you could upload it to place for everyone who may be interested to test.
