Is it possible to use a LiveCycle form to gather data and export the data into various locations in a PDF? If so, how can I do this? If there's any other way to do it, I am up for that too.
Thank you.
The question isn't clear to me. Are you talking about a mechanism to store various data elements within a LiveCycle form and populating the stored data in dropdowns etc ? It will help a bit if you can explain the use case you are trying to meet.

I am building a project with Django 2.2.4 and PostgreSQL 11.4. I am using JSON database fields to store data in JSON arrays.
In my app users create documents using "rich text editor" that provides standard text/image features already.
I also want to enable users create the document to drag and drop form inputs into the body of the document so that once the document is "published" other users can view the document an add input values to these fields before submitting and saving the document again.
Now, I'm trying to figure out conceptually the most efficient way to approach this.
I thought the first step would be to use an abstracted rich text editor which separates the document structure from the HTML, e.g. CKEditor or Quill; if I was to serialise the document with form inputs included I could in theory store templates in one JSONField and inputs in another.
This list is a really useful overview of various editors, but despite having read a lot of documentation it's not clear if this approach would be either correct or actually possible.
Does anyone have any similar experiences?
Pretty sure this isn't possible unfortunately.
Could you elaborate on what you're trying to do with this?

So I've got this idea for a project and am looking for some solutions on how to complete it. Right now I have an iphone app set up to take in a bunch of user information and an image of a signature they draw. I have a pdf waiver that needs to be populated with this data and the signature. Is there any way to overlay this data on the form? Is there a way to create an html document with the form as the background and then the data laid over the top with css?
If this is possible, then what's the best way to get that new pdf or html page to a website/folder/email.
Would appreciate any help with that. Thanks!

I have a Word document(some template format) where it containing some placeholders for the data to be filled in and there are several Word documents like this which lies in some directory. When data comes I will be choosing different templates (based on some criteria) and fill the data and the documents have to be converted to PDF format.
I have been investigating Apache POI for this. If anyone has a good suggestion, it would be much appreciated.
As mbeckish mentioned you should indicate how you are going to run/automate this. For example is it one-off, run by hand or part of another program (and if so what programming languages do you use)?
If you are trying to automate it JODReports and Docmosis are tools that can use templates like you require and can produce PDF. JODReports is free. Docmosis is not but has several APIs. Please note I work for the company that develops Docmosis.
Hope that helps.
I've just uploaded this presentation, which presents three approaches for doing this.
Why not use any of existing PDF virtual printers?
I want to store textfield values in pdf file i.e I need to export form values to pdf file just for back up purpose as I cant completely rely on app database so how can I achieve this. Can somebody help me pls. Or can we export data in excel file.
I cant completely rely on app database
Millions of apps rely on Databases! what about XML storage?
XML will be easy to store, easy to retrieve values.
I believe you're looking for xlslib
Good Luck.
