[PDF_Read->ImportFDF]

[PDF_Read->ImportFDF] imports an FDF file into the current PDF document. Any form elements within the PDF document will have their values set according to the data in the FDF file. The tag accepts one parameter -File which specifies the name of the FDF file to be imported. Alternately, a byte stream containing an FDF file can be passed to the tag. Optional parameters -NoFields and -NoComments can be specified to skip either fields or comments within the FDF file.
