PDF Form Processor
Process fillable PDF forms: analyze fields, fill values, validate output.
Capabilities
- Extract form field information
- Fill form fields programmatically
- Validate field mappings
- Verify output documents
Quick Start
Extract Fields
python scripts/analyze_form.py input.pdf > fields.json
Fill Form
python scripts/fill_form.py input.pdf fields.json output.pdf
Workflow
Step 1: Analyze Form
Run analysis script to extract fields:
python scripts/analyze_form.py form.pdf
Output format:
{
"field_name": {"type": "text", "x": 100, "y": 200},
"signature": {"type": "sig", "x": 150, "y": 500}
}
Step 2: Create Field Mapping
Edit fields.json to add values:
{
"field_name": {
"type": "text",
"value": "John Doe"
}
}
Step 3: Validate Mapping
Check for errors before filling:
python scripts/validate_fields.py fields.json
# Returns: "OK" or lists issues
Step 4: Fill Form
Apply values to PDF:
python scripts/fill_form.py input.pdf fields.json output.pdf
Step 5: Verify Output
Check filled document:
python scripts/verify_output.py output.pdf
If verification fails, return to Step 2.
