pdformfill

Fill PDF forms by generating FDF data and then using pdftk to push the fdf into a PDF form and generate the output.

Quick install

pip install pdformfill

How to use

If our form had fields "name" and "telephone" we would fill it as follows:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import pdformfill

fields = [('name', 'John Smith'), ('telephone', '555-1234')]
pdformfill.fill_pdf(fields, "input.pdf", "output.pdf")
