Different values in same PDF on windows and ubuntu OS

[Guest]

I am having PDF containing XFA form. When I open it in ubuntu for few fields it shows value as zero but when I open same PDF on windows it shows values in numeric for same fields. As files are confidential I can not share them. Issue is happening only in few files. for other it works fine in both OS

What do you use on ubuntu to view the file?

[Guest]

I checked with adobe reader and document viewer on ubuntu. adobe showing value zero and document viewer blank for some fields which are actually contains numeric values. and showing correctly on windows in adobe reader

It's often stated that you must use Acrobat or Reader on Mac or Windows to work with XFA forms. Don't know if the long, long discontinued Reader 9 for Linux could do it too. XFA is basically not portable.

on linux it works fine for other files so is it issue of file ?

XFA forms are an entirely different thing than regular PDFs. Need special software.

I use iText PDF to read XFA PDF.I convert it to XML. But I do not get value in XML then I check PDF in adobe reader it is also not showing value. But when I opened PDF on windows OS it shows values

I'm not surprised. Your Linux Reader is old and forgotten. Maybe there are unfixed bugs or new XFA features.

This all sounds correct.

So is this issue of operating system. But it works fine for other PDFs.

It is a issue of the PDF viewer.

[Guest]

But I tried it in different viewers. iText PDF do not use any viewer then it should get all values from PDF. But it is also showing blank values

Use Acrobat Reader XI or DC on Windows or Mac.

It's clear you do not want to hear that you should be doing this in Mac or Windows only, and that instead of engaging with the replies you intend to rephrase your original question again and again. So I will stop trying to explain it. Perhaps you will eventually accept the message from someone else.
