Re: How to use PHP to fill in existing pdf document

Yes, I've looked hard at fdpf and see how it is used to generate a new pdf, but I need to simply fill in the form fields in an existing pdf. If it can do that, I'm not finding the feature.... Thanks, - Ron On 5/1/2010 7:43 PM, Gary wrote:

Yes, we can first ask the user to fill in a form, but then comes the part I don't understand - how to covert it to pdf. It would be best if we could just fill in the fields on an existing form, but it would also work to print the printer friendly form to the server's printer queue, which could really be a postscript file we could then convert to pdf. In that case, I need to learn how to get PHP to print to the server's printer... - Ron On 5/1/2010 7:53 AM, nagendra prasad wrote:

to fill the form in PHP and then convert it into PDF. What say?

Ron Take a peek at this http://fpdf.org/ Writing to a pdf from php is very cumbersome, this seems to take some of the sting out.
