Here's the scenario:
We are setting up an application where a potential new client signs up to be a
client. We require a tax form to be signed by them and sent back to us. To do
that, we want to automatically e-mail them the PDF form already filled out for
them to print out. Using Cold Fusion (cfobject, primarily), I have managed to
create an FDF with the updated field values for this client.
My question is this: How can I merge the fdf and the pdf so that I can just
e-mail out the merged PDF? [there is a program called PDFMerge (I believe)
which accomplishes something like this, but we're not able to spend $2k for this
feature]
If we were just outputting the PDF on the user's screen, then it'd be easier,
but we want to mail them the PDF. Plus, we'd like this to be a file so they
can save it on their hard drive if they wish.
Any ideas?
Thanks!!
