Ron Wheeler commented on OFBIZ-6225:
------------------------------------
But can it read an exiting form and parse it so that you just have to fill in
the fields using an API?
It seems to be easier and not require any programming if you can just
change/replace the form's PDF file and maybe some name remapping when any
government changes the format.
Could save a lot of FOP programming if all of the VAT agencies give you a PDF
to fill in.
Could also be easier to add fields to an existing PDF that is not already set
up for automatic filling than to create the FOP instructions to draw the form
from scratch for each government. Certainly requires a lower skill set.
How picky are the government's about using their forms?
Just a thought from the cheap seats.

> Few years ago I began to work on that. I just stumbled upon it so I note it

> find and single input form, rendered with FOP
