Hi,Is it possible to import or convert a PDF into Notes?

I need to extract data from the PDF to create a Lotus Notes document with all the rwquired fields.

Any API?XML?Any products? Or workaround?

Thank you,

You can export the PDF to *.xfdf, which is similar to xml.I don’t know a way to export programmatically from Adobe, though.

I’ve done the opposite - exporting from Notes to xfdf, then opening a pdf along with the xfdf - all in a single click.

HTH,

With Java 1.4 (notes7) you may have luck with http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/downloads/xpaaj.htmlI haven’t used it myself, but it looks as if it fits ur requirements.

have a nice day
