The binding feature in designer just allows you to describe how to map fields to data elements, not to actually populate them autotmatically. You would need to have a server component to merge data / pre-populate or a script on your reader-enabled form to load the data. You can use xfa.host.importData() in DocReady event if you want it to prompt on loading the pdf. Earlier events in the chain wont work until the form has been properly loaded.
