Data binding enables data from an external represenation (an XML file, a database, or a Web Service) to populate form fields.
Imagine a .pdf or a .xdp that represents a purchase order template and you need to generate, with any luck, thousands per month. You could read your customer data from a database and merge the customer data with the purchase order template to create the PO.
On a smaller scale, open your .pdf in Acrobat and import the XML data into the form. I have attached a .pdf and an .xml to demonstrate. Open the .pdf in Acrobat, go to the toolbar (Forms > Manage Data > Import Data), and open the .xml.
