I have been converting PDFs with ImageMagick:
mogrify -format jpg -density 300 FILE.PDF
It would create FILE-1.jpg FILE-2.jpg and so on for each page. You may
increase the page quality. Try it out.
Can you please post the PDF hyperlink? I would like to try it out with
various PDF readers.

PDFium supports XFA and is free software:

Evince is supposed to handle some XFA forms, maybe it is not compiled
in on your system. https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Evince/Forms
