1748410 - PDF form (XFA) not working correct in viewer

Status: NEW

(Firefox :: PDF Viewer, defect, P3)

Description

[Eckart Arns]

Attachment: dp-el-dip-intern-01-2022.pdf

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/15.2 Safari/605.1.15

Steps to reproduce:

I developed a PDF-Form which contains several single forms (46 pages). Depending on a variable only one of the forms is visible each time. Switching to other forms is possible (see in Adobe Reader/Acrobat). Usually those forms created in LiveCycle Designer see not to be viewed in any browser. It's weird and confusing.

Actual results:

Mozilla's pdf-viewer destroys the whole functionality, all 46 pages are visible at the same time and the function for single forms is not working.

Expected results:

Just one form should show up. Internal javascript seems not to work properly.

[BugBot [:suhaib / :marco/ :calixte]]

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::PDF Viewer' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Hi,

I am able to reproduce the issue in release 95, beta 96 and latest nightly 97.0a1 (2022-01-05). I will set this as New and waiting for the developers opinion about it.

Thanks for your input.
