Hi all, I would like to get ideas about how to fill out a PDF form in R and to know if it's possible or not. I could not find something helpful in Internet. Does anyone know a good link for that or have experience in this? Thanks for any help! Elahe
Hi Elahe, I have no clue, but maybe you can dump the data fields using pdftk, and work with those in R.

On second thought, you could also use pdftk to fill out the pdf form with data generated in R.
