How to merge JSON data into an existing PDF in Node?

Time:12-13

Say I have a PDF of a government form. I have a JSON of data with which I'd like to populate the PDF. What would be a good way, using Node, to merge the data into the PDF and create a new PDF?

CodePudding user response:

Looks like the form-filling tools of PDF-lib are going to do the trick.

CodePudding user response:

You can do it in this way.

You can create a route e.g /pdf/create where you populate the form. In that form you set the submit form route to /pdf/save now if user modified some of the fields then you get the updated value else the default one and generate pdf based on that.
