Hi!
I've red the document "Using PDF Forms with xCP". But it's doesn't clear for me how can I extract data from the recieved Adbobe Form? What are components of the system I need to retrieve data from a form?
Regards,
Konstantin
Hi Konstantin,
It's not possible for the moment to extract date from the form. You can just take the form and adding it as content of your package. If you want to extract data from the forms, you have to write custom code ...
We're currently working on a module like that ... in a few weeks.

Thanks, Julien. We look forward to your adapter
By the way.
Our small reseach on this subject shows if we submit a pdf as XML, we can get data from this pdf by using out of the box capabilites of the xCP.
Have you checked out this link on xCP Design patterns:
https://community.emc.com/docs/DOC-9300
It talks about extracting data from PDF form via xCP.
Johnny, thanks.
Yes, I saw this document and I asked the question after reading it. The document certainly useful, but it doesn't describe the most interesting part - how to get data from the recieved pdf. I my opinion.
Although for outself we have chosen the variant described in my previous message - submit as 'xml'.

Sorry Konstantin, your original posting did reference that. Have you tried to send message to the OP of the doc - Jeffrey Hare? He might be able to help you with the details of the implementation.
