Re: fdf and pfd functions in PHP

Hi, I think this is more complicated. You'll need to create the FDF file manually pertaining to the format specifications. You will have to use the data posted from the HTML form, but just writing them out to the file won't do the trick. I haven't done this with PHP yet, maybe the fdf functions provided can help you somewhat with the format. Greetings, Michael. > Okay, I'm trying to teach myself how to utilize fdf and insert into pdf and > I have a question for y'all.
