Hello! I hope you are doing well, and we apologise for the delayed response. XFA forms are not standard PDFs. While they may look and function like PDFs to users, they are a different form of technology wrapped within a PDF shell. As a result, XFA forms cannot be edited in Acrobat or any other PDF viewer. To modify them, you need to use the AEM Forms editor (formerly known as LiveCycle Designer). If Acrobat is unable to open the file, it could be due to file corruption, non-standard features causing compatibility issues, or a specific Acrobat setting interfering with the process. For example, is Protected Mode enabled in Acrobat? Your best option is to contact the form creator and inform them about the issue with their form. Please ensure you have the latest version of Acrobat installed on the machine: 25.001.20432 Planned update, Mar 11, 2025. Check for any pending updates from the Menu > help > check for updates, install the updates, restart the app and the machine, and check.
