Processing FDF data #54

Open gilbertbw opened 1 week ago

gilbertbw commented 1 week ago

I am looking to create an application that fills in PDF forms.

I see this library has no support for opening existing PDFs, and I expect filling a PDF form from first principles would be a lot of work.

I see that pdftk has the ability to take an FDF file, and apply it to a PDF. I wonder if opening/editing FDF data would be within scope of this library. I am happy to work on a PR for this.

Hi @gilbertbw Currently I have no plans for dealing with opening or editing existing PDFs but I’d be happy to accept pull requests that tackle this.
