I'm trying to import some XML data into XFA form through web server.
So, I have a HTML form which user populate, that data is stored in MySQL database. On other side I have an XFA form created in LiveCycle and wrapped in PDF, when user finish populating online form I need to place user's data in the XFA form and trigger the print it.
How can I do this? So far I had success using FPDM for real PDF form. Can I somehow convert XFA to real PDF form? Will I be able to print the PDF file through browser automatically when user clicks the button?
This is what I found, but it's too expensive to buy a licence:

Thanks in advance,

I have a PDF form with a table where multiple students information is to filled, as shown in the screen screenshot.
The traditional way to do is open PDF with acrobat and go to Form > Manage Form Data > Import Data.
Can we do it using PHP? Is it possible? Any hint, thanks in advance.
I have searched the internet but everywhere it is being told to fill the form fields. Couldn't find any solution specifying filling data into table.
Using PHP how can I show editable PDF form and then on submit get the information? I have a PDF form which I have converted to editable PDF form using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro, I now want to show it in the browser so that user can fill. On submit I want to get the information entered in that form and store in the database.
To read and write a pdf you can use some PDF libraries like FPDI or PDFtoHTML.

But in your use case I am not sure why you are using a PDF form if your intention is just to save the user inputs into database. I would recommend use a HTML form instead, will be easier for you to manage.
I have an html page that has a form for the user to fill out after conducting a list of tests.
Once they are done filling out the form they submit and it is entered into a database table.
Is it possible to have this information also exported into an excel file with a predefined template (containing charts, and graphs) that would be downloaded onto the user's computer upon submit?
I've scoured the forums/web for this answer, but I've failed to come up with a solution.
I have a PHP based form that inputs form data onto a PDF generated by FPDF/FPDI (utilizing a pre-made template). That, in and of itself, is working just fine.
I have one version that is a simple quote; the user can input their email without adding in personal information if they're not ready to move forward. A PDF is created with their quote info. The question has come up on whether or not this generated PDF can have form input fields and a send button, that way the client can send along their newly completed form with their quote information.
Does anyone know of a utility out there that can generate a functional PDF with input fields/send button and also input data from a PHP form?
Whoever can help will be this girl's hero. I may even send you cookies.
i created a system using php..
on my system..there is a form...in that form has a submit button and view in pdf button ..
so my question is how to transform my php form into pdf form..user can view the form in pdf format even he did not submit the form yet and the details that he enter is appear in the pdf format form..please help me..
You'll need to create the form in Acrobat Pro, PDFpen Pro, FoxIt Reader (with appropriate add-ons), etc. In doing that, you can include a form control button that submits the form values to a URL as POST. Write a PHP script to receive that POST similar to an HTML form POST, and you're good to go.
From there, you just post the PDF to your site and let the visitor's PDF tools do the rest.
Note that form validation is also handled in-PDF. The tool you use to create the form will include a bunch of ready-to-go validations you can use (e.g., phone number or social security number), and if something's missing, you can incorporate JavaScript. Note that the JS runs in the PDF reader, not the browser, so it'll work even if the user has JS turned off.
