Hello,

Ps. let us know does Adobe Interactive forms (developed from LiveCycle designer) will work on Apple iPads (iOS) for users to enter the data on the form?

If so, any restrictions? or does users has to download any app to make the forms to work on iPads?

Thank you,

Hi,

dynamic form (XFA) aren't supported on mobile devices.

Static forms will be filLable with Reader Mobile and other 3rd party PDF-viewers.

There is also a HTML5-solution for LiveCycle enviroments to translate XFA-forms into HTML pages, but the result doesn't r'un stand-alone and requires a server.
