Nitro PDF Form Element

Dear Forum Experts.

I have an already created PDF Document that has a Form Element in it that was created with NITROPDF. But the problem is just that I need a way to pass value or populate the Document Form Element with value store in a Session Variable before the form is displayed to user.

Can you please give me a tip of Ideas.

Thank you.

Williams.

I think this is only possible at the time it is created, as the PDF is
entirely separate from your web page, and could very well be opened from
someones desktop.

Dear Forum,

I have an already created PDF Document that has a Form Element in it that w=
as created with NITROPDF. But the problem is just that I need a way to pass=
value or populate the Document Form Element with value store in a Session =
Variable before the form is displayed to user.

There is a process that the document must follow before it is finally allow=
ed to be display to user.

1.   A default PDF design Document with Form Element on the Server.
2.   PHP opens the document first and populate the Form Element with Se=
ssion Information.
3.   PHP Save the Document with the populated value on the Server DIR.
4.   PHP picks up the new filled documents and display it to the User o=
n Browser.

Any tips for this options.

Williams.

I do something similar with the PDFs and classic ASP. I use the fdf
toolkit (which i beleive is part of php) that lets you have scripting
access to the pdf form fields
