Hi Guy, The best way to do it uses a technology called FDF. You basically add form fields to the PDF using Acrobat or Illistator and then make an FDF or XFDF (its FDF+XML ;-) and merge the two. The result is the form filled in. As far as I know there isn't a great way to do that inside Ruby, but there is an app called pdftk (which doesn't actually use TK btw) and I usually shell out to that.
