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.

Is there any advantage using pdftk? Chrs, Dav
