XML Schema support is given, if the Designer is used to create the
form. Actually, it is possible to define the Schema as a data source,
and that starts a mechanism to automatically create all the fields
defined in the Schema.
However, note that in order to make full use of these features, all
your users must be force-upgraded to Acrobat 7 level (Reader or full
version).
Also, there might be features which require the support of one of
Adobe's server components (Reader Extensions Server, Forms Server,
etc.). You would have to verify this for your processes.
And a little private advice: Keep care of your Acrobat 5.05...
Hope, this can help.
