This is kinda of a followup to my earlier message below and may not be directly
related to Perl but hope there are some list members that are fimilar with
Adobe.
According to the Acrobat Pro's documentation, when you use the "baked in" submit
form function within Adobe Acrobat (as I am doing), Acrobat sends the data to
the server in whatever file format you specify when setting up the submit
button.
(Reference:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Standard/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7dd6.w.html )
The way I'm understanding this reference, the end user's Acrobat software is
submitting the format that I've specified in the submit button (within the PDF
form) ... if that's the case, can't the script read the MIME data, save a temp
file based on that MIME data, then attach that temp file to an e-mail address.
This is the end results we like to accomplish. Have the Perl script interupted
the PDF form and read the MIME data. Is this possible to do? If so how would the
script read the MIME data or the correct way to do this within the script?
Thanks again for any assistance.
Mike

I'm working on a small project that will require us to parse data submitted

either a PDF or FDF temp file, attach it to an email, and send it to use. Now
parsing the data from the Adobe Form with a Perl script shouldn't be a
problem. My question is what is the best Perl module to use to create the
PDF(needed for digital siginatures) or a FDF file for this type of
application? I've been looking at CPAN for possible solutions but not real
clear which is the best to handle this type of application for both PDF or
FDF formats.
any suggestions or tips would be appreciated.
