Hello all,
I just joined this forum.
I am trying to provide our business a easy way of creating new PDF forms and able to get the input through the .NET application. I basically want to orchestarte the data entry into the forms between our interbnal folks, our partners and our clients all done through pre-defined pdf forms.
We currently have around 200 PDF forms and as business adds new rproducts, new pdf forms will be created by the business.
So in essense, while I want to keep the data in the database, I want the pdf forms to be the input interface for the users when they are offline, and I should be able to take the data back and update the database with the forms data.
I am concerned about the existing pdf forms library as well as new ones that will be created. This is what I am thinkig as a solution
- Convert existing pdf forms or any new ones to an XML data format (how can I do this? is there an utility?)
- Use xml data to dynamically generate html forms and PDF forms to be used by the end user for data input. Most of the information will be input by our partners on the html screes. Once they select the appropriate forms, pre fill with the data collected through the web forms.
- Let partners print and send to client the pdf forms.
- Once the clients fill the missing information on the form, somehow that data needs to get into the database as well as the pdf form need to be stored
As you can see part of the data will be filled in the web site and part in the pdf form by the client offline
How can I achieve this? any tips
Thanks
