Is there a way to create an editable PDF programmatically? By editable, I mean you can click in a text area and type in your name, that kind of thing. I'm using Ruby and have found PrinceXML and Princely to be nice projects. I'm wondering if they could do that? ...

I'm using a standard example from the web (http://www.20seven.org/journal/2008/11/pdf-generation-with-pisa-in-django.html) to convert a django view / template into a PDF.

Hi all, Our eTendering solution, www.monaqasat.com, currently works exclusively with PDF documents for various reasons, some of them being security.

Essentially there would be 5 different PDFs created. The first would contain all page ones from every PDF, the second the second page, etc....
I am getting a NullReferenceException when the following code is executed. I have also noticed that the nested table appeared on a new page when I added in the code that wrote cells to the main table. It doesn't occur if I take out the two loops that write cells to the main table. <%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Main...
I am automating a now-manual process that creates PDFs by printing to the Adobe PDF driver installed by the Adobe Acrobat 9 installation (on Windows XP). The programming works fine.

I need to know if there is a way to either a) Prevent a PDF from being saved to a client's computer (disable the save button) or b) Script the PDF to open, print, then close with no user interaction. I know this is a bit of a long shot, but I have to ask in case there is a way to do this. I am using F-PDF to create the pdf. Thanks ...
I am using a PDF converter library to embed fonts in a PDF file.

I'm trying to put a 3D model into a PDF file. When I load the PDF file in Acrobat, it comes up. However, when I use the rotate, spin, or hand control, the 3D image stays in the same orientation while the camera viewpoint seems to point in different directions, so even a slight rotate will send the image off the screen unless I zoom way...

Right now I use pycairo to draw onto a transparent PDFSurface, then merge it into the existing static PDF using pyPdf. This way, the PDFSurface works as an overlay.
