Re: How To I Use PDF Templates In PHP?
To my knowledge you cannot update a PDF dynamically like that on the web... HOWEVER...
You can use flash to create and pull data from the database to create the PDF and you can also use HTML2PDF. The later I believe would require you to create the document in HTML (PHP) populate it with the data then use the HTML2PDF to create the final product.
I don't know how to do it but I think that Flash might be your best route there...
There is also a (new to me anyway) product from Adobe called LiveCycle designer which on a glance appears to create pdf's dynamically from a database not sure if it has online functionality...
Let us know here which solution you end up using and the pros and cons, I think it's definitely an awesome idea, and could be of great value to many of us here.
