I'll certainly play around with it to see what it can do, but right of the bat it seems that templates aren't supported the way I would like them to. Importing a PDF is possible, but apparently they can only be treated like images. I had a similar situation where I needed to fill in the blanks on an existing PDF file. I used the createFDF function from http://koivi.com/fill-pdf-form-fields in combination with pdftk (http://www.accesspdf.com/pdftk/) to merge the fdf data and pdf file into one.Take a look at the fill_form and flatten options of pdftk.
