Hi All
I have tried to write PDF documents with code.
Its really easy using Richards pdf class, but there is a standard form we use that is so darn complex and with a million little boxes that it is impossible to write with code.
I was wondering since i can create PDf documents with User-complete fields in Adobe acrobat, of there is a way to programatically open the PDF form and complete the fields from my data?
Or use the form as a type of background in a pdf and just add text on top?
Any ideas would be very helpfull.
Regards- Peter.
Maybe PDFLib (https://www.pdflib.com/products/ (https://www.pdflib.com/products/)), but it is pricey.
This is LGPL license and a pretty extensive library.

Thanks guys, but i realised i actually answered myself in my question.
I simply used a Print to JPG tool and saved the form as an image.
Then it was very simple.
Richard's PDF class loads the JPg very fast and then i simply prite text on top of it.
Its about 5 times faster than my previous tool.
Thanks again for the advice!
