Hi I would like to know the best way of using VB.NET code to read, copy and update an existing PDF template (created with LiveCycle 8*), is there a way of doing this without having to use third party software like Itextsharp.

If you have Acrobat installed on the same machine as Visual Studio you can use the Acrobat API.

Is there a code sample of this in VB.net to open the template add say one textfield and output to another PDF?
