Does this sound acceptable?

I would say know but it's true that I didn't mention this point.

The only user interaction should be saving the PDF without asking him anything if possible.

  • The PDF is launched from the desktop application
  • The user fill the form, add or modify information
  • The user Save the PDF and close Adobe Reader (or close Reader which ask to save the PDF)
  • I read back the fields values (with iTextSharp for the FDF solution / from the XML data file for what I'm looking for)

For saving I should be able to do with a "Send by HTTP" button, but only if I can click this button with JavaScript when saving the PDF or closing Adobe Reader. Impossible to do for the last one I think ^^

For the loading, this sound good. So you can have a XML with a link to the PDF and when loading the XML, Adobe Reader get the PDF and fill it ? Like with a FDF file then ?
