Hi,
I am exploring a requirement to generate PDF fillable forms.
A major decision is whether to start with our current PDF (created with a
derivative of PStill), or build it with PDFBox from scratch. In the past I
added bookmarks to our existing PDF files using PDFBox.
I see in the examples
(https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/pdfbox/trunk/examples/src/main/java/org/apache/pdfbox/examples/interactive/)
that a PDAcroForm instance is being added to a newly created empty PDDocument.
Is it worth considering modifying an existing PDF document to add fillable form
fields? Or should I not waste time with that approach and plan to create a new
document from scratch?
IMHO it doesn't make much difference because acroform is separate from
the rest. Creating fields with PDFBox is always tricky.
