You just run your report and have it print to that "printer". There is a lot of sample code out there for this. John Harvey -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 27, 2008 7:24 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Writing to a PDF form The situation: ------------- - There's a 37-page PDF form that someone created - Turns out 1/3 of the fields come from a report my VFP9 application generates - Users think it's normal to re-type my report into the PDF form - I think otherwise... The question: ------------ A PDF form must have fields and/or tags that I can look for and plug my values in, no? The caveat: ---------- The PDF form will already exist and will most likely be partially filled. It is not an option to re-generate the PDF form from the app. I simply want to alter an existing PDF file. Has anyone done something like this? Is it at all doable? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
