A PDF file is really text inside, if you just need to change a few
parts of the file, like their name + account number or something,
but the rest of the document stays the same, you can create the PDF
and then open it and do a search and replace for your place holder
(like --NAME-HERE--). This works best if there is nothing else on
the same line after the text you are replacing, the different sizes
of replacement strings may mess up what comes later. Example:
Joe Smith Other Stuff
Cathly Brunagamnecktie Other Stuff (not lined up....)
The CFX to do html2pdf also sounds promising, but of course won't
work for those of us on the worlds best free operating system...
