This renders now, although it has some rendering issues (some JavaScript and table layout) as well.

You can see this pdf in Firefox nightly: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/desktop/ and then you enable enableXfa in using about:config. With a local setup, you can set option enableXfa to true in web/app_options.js (see https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/blob/caaf77375f4a1b1ee2e9402ec5a2f5d25a65e161/web/app_options.js#L197).

The only way for https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/issues/13582#issuecomment-877397848 to happen is if you're not actually following the STR which explicitly says (note the first step):

Steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. Enable XFA support
  2. Open form

This isn't really related to this issue, which is about a XFA document not rendering once support has been manually enabled; please try to limit unrelated discussion in issues since that can often make things more difficult to follow.

I understand your point but as @calixteman pointed out this pdf can be viewed in Firefox Nightly, It wasn't mentioned in the STR, Hence the confusion. Thanks for the clarification.

This is working well now.

The remaining issues are related to JS.
