Some text editors will automatically add a byte-order mark (BOM) to documents.
If you use a text editor to edit a form, configure your editor so it does
not add a BOM to UTF-8 encoded documents. (See your text editor’s documentation
for details.)
If your UTF-8 encoded forms do contain a BOM, the Viewer and API will not
be able to read them. These products produce the following error: Unable
to load form: Invalid document structure.
Example
No example provided.
Usage Notes
To remove a BOM from a form, open the form in the Designer and save it.
