The company that I worked for has recently received a task to upgrade a version of a program. I can't get into the details of the program but there is a part where it downloads PDF's from the internet.

The way it works right now is that the a form (in pdf) is downloaded via ftp, and printed out, and then filled in by a person using a pencil/pen. If you open the PDF up in acrobat, there are fields to fill in the form right in Acrobat. I need to make it so that the user can fill out the fields in visual basic, and for visual basic to pass those variables onto the pdf file, and pretty much fill in the fields in the pdf.

I started to look into it, and I read that I have to create a JavaScript or something on the pdf file?


Any help is appreciated
