hi,

can somebody give me a hint how I can deliver a pdf form with data already filled from a server?

preferable php. code snippet?

I know how to do it with acrobat and fdf but I want to use the lifecycle designer and xml.

this is bugging me for 2 days now.

thanks

You can use either the LiveCycle ES Forms' renderPDF service (for XDP based PDFs) and/or the LiveCycle ES Foundations' formDataService (usually used for Acroforms based PDFs or XFA type XML data).  Both of these require the LiveCycle ES server products

there must be a way without installing a server. it's just about importing some field data into a pdf. it works for data on a hard disk with ONE line of code. and I quess it is the same with data from a server.
