I've developed a system that uses fdf for a client just recently. Some of the fdf is a little overkill, but there are cases when the pdf forms are a scannable document that uses special fonts for a scanner to read. (much like the little box's you have to fill out for those silly sat tests.) To properly have the document print, they voted to use fdf/pdf's forms to have the user print their data out so it can be scanned.
