We are using the AEM Forms HTML5 capability to put a large number of XDP based forms online. Some of the forms contain common bits of text content (like an official brand name, contact email address or phone number) which we want to centrally manage so changes can be updated for all forms in one go.
I had a look around, and saw that data from external sources can be passed into the form using data or dataRef parameters, but this seems very much focussed on binding the data to fields, rather than plain content. Whats the best way to bind external data to content in the form?
I have seen this done in pure XDP forms using span elements with xfa:embed 'binding' to floating fields, but this doesn't seem to work in HTML5 forms (perhaps its not supported).
