Acroforms vs. XFA Forms

If an error like this occures, your pdf must be converted to a BulkPDF compatible specification. For this just upload the file to https://www.pdfescape.com/ , save it there and download it again, without changing anything. The new downloaded file is now compatible with BulkPDF and your configuration should work nicely.

I have a form which is in XFA format and (as expected) if I try to use it, BulkPDF says it will create 0 pdf files. I tried uploading and downloading from pdfescape.com but the format did not appear to change and I still get that there are 0 forms to fillout. I assume this problem is related to using a pdf in xfa format but perhaps it is something else?

Can anyone help me?

I tried with an Acroform and I get the same result

Found the problem. It was not the PDF, it was the spreadsheet. There was a blank line between the header line and the data thus resulting in the program seeing no data. It wold be nice if you could select a range to be used rather than the entire column.
