Extract Field Entries to Spreadsheet

I have a paid Editor Plus and want to extract ONLY the entry fields from an existing XFA form (attached or IRS Form 13614-C from their website). I don't want the background information to be OCR'd or transferred, only the fields. I have tried EXPORT FORM DATA but doesn't seem to work. Is it because of some security setting on the form?

When I try another simple form it seems to work and gives me an FCF. Ultimately I want to be able to extract the field entries to a spreadsheet for a large number of filled-out forms, one form per row. Do I need to use PDF-Tools?

Hi, avito52

This seems to be very similar to your more recent post here: https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=35099
Would it be safe to assume as you mention exporting to CSV in that topic, you do not need help exporting to a spreadsheet anymore, and the only remaining issue is pertaining to the XFA file. In either case, I am afraid XFA documents will not be able to be exported as you desire in our software currently.

Kind regards,

That is correct. I'd close this issue here.
