Re: FO: How to create Editable PDFs?

Hi,
Is it possible to create an editable PDF using Formatting Objects?
I want to be able to let my users be able to download a PDF template from
the web. Then I want them to populate certain fields in the PDF document,
and save that PDF. When they upload that PDF again, I want to read their
input and update my DB. (Since there is a lot of fields to be updated which
would take several hours, I can't have them do this in the same Web
session, hence the need for them to do this offline.)

I read somewhere that some publishers use the above method for publishing
stories/ Reports in a pre-formatted manner. They get the XML of the story
or a Report, and apply it to a PDF template, instead of creating PDFs each
time for creating the same report or similar story.

Anybody having experience doing something cool like this.
Thanks
