Hi,
First off, what an awesome utility iText is. We will most likely be buying
the book for future projects. Since we just discovered iText, I was hoping
to obtain input from a knowledgable user as to whether or not this
particular project idea is possible:
- User downloads a template PDF document, created by iText, from our website
to the user¹s desktop.
- The PDF contains username/password fields on 1st page, followed by a
predetermined number of blank pages.
- Input values are sent via a SUBMIT button to a remote Linux server-side
PHP script for validation against a MySQL database (both script and database
are already set up).
- Server checks IP address of the request and if valid, the server returns a
body of pure text, to be inserted into the additional pages of the user's
PDF (about 100 pages) while the PDF is still open.
So our questions are:
- Can this be accomplished solely with iText? If not, which portions can be?
- Will the user need to install additional components for this to work?
- Is it ok to keep the PHP/MySQL set up, or do we have to switch to another
environment?
We wish to know if this is all possible before embarking into the world of
iText. Thank you for any help!
Todd
