Maybe in spec, but the damage is done and persists.
The (USA) Wisconsin Dept. of Natural Resources has nearly all their regulation PDFs as these XFA non-pdfs that I cannot read. So I cannot know the regulations. My emails about this topic (to multiple addresses over many years a dozen times) have gone unanswered.
If Acrobat supports it it doesn't matter what the spec says. Until Adobe drops XFA from Acrobat and forces these extremely silly people to stop, PDF is no longer PDF.
