SetaPDF FormFiller API - GUI Demo

The following demo will guide you through an assistant, which analyzes a PDF form and accepts new values for each form field it finds. At the end, it will show the PHP code, which was used to fill in the PDF form fields.

Please select one of the following PDF forms or upload your own:

While loading this page the API extracted all fields that were found in the PDF file. Now you can simply fill in the data and finish it by going to step 4.

Configure the behaviour of that demo:

An incremental update will write the changes to the end of the existing document. This way the API has only to touch things it really needs. All other content like pages or images will be ignored. It is very fast if you use the incremental update feature. If not the API have to rebuild the whole document.

If that flag is set the PDF reader is instructed to recreate the appearance of any form field its own. The flag is defined in the $renderAppearancesByViewer-parameter of the factory()-method.

If your document is rights enabled (the document can be filled out and saved with Acrobat Reader) you should leave this flag to false!

If the document is rights enabled, you should activate this checkbox. It will define a constant which prevents the API from updating the information dictionary of the document, which could destroy the rights enabled status.



If there are a lot of fields in your PDF, you can use the following button which will fill your form automatically with dummy-data.
