Form filling
============

[](#form-filling)

The FPDM class allows to fill out PDF forms, i.e. populate fields of a PDF file. It is **developed by Olivier Plathey**, author of the [FDPF Library](http://www.fpdf.org/), and has been released as [Skript 93](http://www.fpdf.org/en/script/script93.php).
Initial adaptation for Composer was from [codeshell](https://github.com/codeshell/fpdm) and this was adapted for Laravel 5. The follow adaptation for Composer was from \[shihjay2\] () adapted for PHP 7.

I created this repository for the following reasons:

- Fix compatibility with Laravel 5.6 and foward

This repository only contains the separate php class written for form filling. If you are looking for a repository containing the main FPDF Library for Laravel 5, please head over to [github.comcaioladislau/FPDF](https://github.com/caioladislau/FPDF).

Once again, all credits to Olivier Plathey for providing an easy to use extension to his FPDF library! And to Michael Chen to bring it to composer!

Description

[](#description)

This script allows to merge data into a PDF form. Given a template PDF with text fields, it's possible to inject values in two different ways:

- from a PHP array
- from an FDF file

The resulting document is produced by the Output() method, which works the same as for FPDF.

Note: if your template PDF is not compatible with this script, you can process it with [PDFtk](https://www.pdflabs.com/tools/pdftk-server/) this way:

`pdftk modele.pdf output modele2.pdf`

Then try again with modele2.pdf.
