Last time I checked, the P in PDF stood for Portable. These days it stands for Privilege!

The Republican Ohio government and Adobe have teamed up to force Android users to go out and buy expensive Mac and Windows computers in order to apply for insurance benefits for unemployed citizens. It's a scam! Uninstall Adobe products and cancel your subscriptions! Tell these jagoffs that racketeering will not be tolerated! If I'm unemployed, and haven't received any payments yet, how am I supposed to go out and buy a computer? I'm in a long term care facility, I cannot get to the unemployment office to do anything in person, nor do I think they are even reopened yet.

WAKE UP ADOBE! THE WORLD HAS GONE MOBILE! MAKE PDF PORTABLE AGAIN!

"Adobe invented this tech ("XFA forms")"

Adobe didn't invent it, Adobe bought it

Actually, Adobe invented this tech ("XFA forms") 20 years ago and has been trying to get people to convert to something else for many years. This isn't anything new; what is new is that your unemployment office decided to use this old tech instead of something more accessible.

Adobe don't own PDF any more, and ANYONE can make a PDF viewer. Unfortunately, none of them bothered to make an XFA viewer for phones either. It would be in Adobe's power to make this, but they never bothered. I think this is a bad thing, but they aren't going to do it now. (By the way, it's the same for people with iPhones and iPads).

You will get this message when you open a XFA form.
