Prepopulating PDF with XML best way to do this?

Hi,



I'm quite new to LiveCycle Forms and I was wondering if someone can help me with the following.



First of all, I'm using LiveCycle Forms 7.2 and Designer 7.0. I have a couple of hundred PDFs (all differ from each other) created with the Designer and now I need to merge one XML to every one of these PDFs.



My biggest wonder right now is the best way to do this. From the documentation I got the understanding that Forms can only merge XML and XDP files. Not XML and PDF. Am I correct?



So do I need to get those two hundred forms saved in XDP, import the XML scheme to them and apply the scheme to match the fields in the form? This is done in the Designer? After that I could use PDFMerge in the Forms to merge the XML and XDP?



Is this the best way to do this or are there some alternatives for this?



I would really appreciate the help from you guys.
