Hi Jim, Like everyone else said, FDF will work. A bit of a shameless plug here - if you don't want to learn to do the FDF stuff yourself, take a look at PDFConnect: www.pdfconnect.com.

Howdy - I have a client who wanted to convert a number of Word-created forms to PDF's and put them up on their site. No sweat. Then, they wanted the user to be able to fill out form fields and have Acrobat do all the math, and they could print out a nice, cleanly filled-out form to sign and fax. Again, no problem at all. Now, however, they'd like to take the final step and have fully interactive PDF's - where certain dynamic fields are populated from database information, and the user can "submit" the PDF like they would any other web form and have CF process it accordingly. I've looked at ActivePDF, but before I dive into that, I wanted to send out some feelers to the group to see if anyone's worked with that with CF5 before. Money's not an object (to a point), so if there's a particularly awesome package there I should look into, I'm open to some suggestions. I am fiddling with XSL:FO syntax right now, but it's not exactly what I'm looking for, since I have to work off a previously-existing document (and I don't have a great deal of time to really get elbow-deep in *yet another* XML spec.) :) Thanks, - Jim ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
