FDF Merge with Rights Enabled Form

Avatar

Former Community Member
Hi,



I have a rights enabled form and I would like to be able to do a server side merge with this form and fdf data using a tool like pdftk or Appligent's FDFMerge. However, when the form is merged, there is a message saying "this document used to have rights but have been disabled due to changes in the document" (something along those lines).



Is it possible to do a server side merge with a rights enabled document and still keep the rights?



Any help is greatly appreciated.

It sounds like you may be modifying the structure of the form and not just populating fields. Is the tool actually "filling in" the form or filling the form and creating a new form from the original using it as a template?

It is filling out the form and saving a temporary file to be served to the client. The original is like a template.
