Usage notes
Supported declared property classes use schema defaults, including Courier at 10pt and a 0.5pt edge width; explicit fractional font and border measurements retain their precision in native PDF appearance and border dictionaries
- Use this API in the XFA import and flattening workflow before the affected page, resource, field, or catalog object is finalized
- Keep object names, field names, resource names, and returned handles stable until the document is finalized
- XFA workflows are rejected by PDF/A and PDF/X conformance modes, so flatten or remove packets before strict archival output
- Fields and static content keep the positions and sizes from the XFA template, in points, whatever Resolution is set to; text and graphics you draw before and after the call still use 1/Resolution inch
