Import Form Fields Node
The Import Form Fields node is used to import form data into a PDF document. When the source is a form data file (.fdf, xfdf, or .xdp) it will be imported into a local PDF. When the source is a PDF a local form data file will be imported into the source PDF.
General Settings
Import: Form data can be imported one of 2 ways:
- from a static LOCAL form data file into the PDF in the message payload
- form data from the MESSAGE PAYLOAD into static local PDF document
File - Sets the source file type for the form data import. When the source is a form data file (.fdf, xfdf, or .xdp) it will be imported into a local PDF. When the source is a PDF a local form data file will be imported into the source PDF.
Note: This directory is local to where the server is running not the PAS Manager and so the file path must follow the format set by the OS of the server.
