Question

How do I convert a Dynamic XFA PDF to a Static XFA PDF?

Hey! I have a Dynamic XFA PDF that I need to convert to a Static XFA PDF. I need to do this because Docusign only supports Static XFA files. The help support page for DocuSign mentions that we should be able to "Save as Static XFA" but I can not find that option in Acrobat.

 Please note that I am not talking about conversion to a Static PDF which can be done simply by "printing" the PDF. I believe that a Static XFA file should still have the input forms. 

Thanks! 😄

Why not convert the document to PNG, open the image with Acrobat, detect the texts, and save the PNG back?

Hi, did you ever find a solution for this? I am on the same boat.

For those curious/confused, here's the wiki  for XFA and mentions the difference between Static/Dynamic.
