I am currently working on a project using iText to populate form fields
in the pdf document. If you can use cf8 there is a new cftag that will
do this for you.
Thank you
Andrew Leaf

Subject: [DFW CFUG] PDF Manipulation...
Hi folks,
I have the need to read in PDF documents (state government forms) and
programmatically fill in certain fields prior to letting the user print
out the resultant form. I'm guessing first that I could not do this with
CF7 (we will upgrade to get this functionality). What I'm wondering next
is how I should approach this. The user wouldn't have to fill anything
out, as all of the data that I need to pre-fill on the PDF I already
have in my database. So should I convert the thing into an honest to
goodness PDF form (if it isn't one already), or can I just read the PDF
in, manipulate what is necessary, and be done with it?
I've never done any PDF manipulation so if anyone on here has experience
with that, I'd love your input.
Thanks,
Chris
