--- Comment #19 from Paul Menzel <paulepanter at users.sourceforge.net> ---
Sorry, but just to make sure, has there been any progress in the mean time?

The PDF viewer (pdf.js) included Firefox 45.3.0 is also *not* able to
“correctly” display the form. There is an open issue in their bug tracker [1],
where they take the stand, to not support it, until it’s part of the ISO PDF
standard, and suggest to add support with an extension.

> If someone is serious and wants put the work into adding it into mainstream
> pdf.js they should ping me and I could look into the implications.


1. Is XFA free?
2. What alternatives are there?
