Hey All, I'm looking into building a process with the following bits:
PDF FORM -filled in by user -each form generates a unique barcode or ID and displays on the form -some of the fields are calculated (based on input in other fields) -form has send button to package up the form data and send to an e-mail account OR send via HTTP FAX -user must print the completed PDF form and get multiple signatures on it -fax in the form via a fax service (I'd expect the TIFF to arrive in a mailbox which CF could check) CF and MORE -grab the fax TIFF from the mailbox -CFEXECUTE (or another process) to read the bar code or OCR the unigue ID off the faxed form -convert TIFF to PDF (I can do this already with iText) -store file reference against the data sent by the PDF form So this whole process allows a signed copy of the form to be stored digitally along with the data sent in by the form creating an automatic paperless process. PARTS I'M LOOKING FOR SOME INSIGHT ON -creation of PDF forms that meet my requirements (via an IDE or programmatically) -bar code or OCR process that CF can kick off (what app to use to perform these tasks) Any and all insight welcome (especially from someone that's built a process like what I've outlined). I'm off to do my own research...but I always ask here first ;-) TIA Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
