PDF Fill Form (pdf-fill-form) is Node.js native C++ library for filling PDF forms. Created PDF file is returned back as Node.js Buffer object for further processing or saving - whole process is done in memory. Library offers methods to return filled PDF also as PDF file where pages are converted to images. Libary uses internally Poppler QT5 for PDF form reading and filling. Cairo is used for PDF creation from page images (when parameter { "save": "imgpdf" } is used).

QUESTION
I have a project where I want to fill out a taxform programmatically. I'm building a React application. The PDF is already existing and I downloaded it to my computer. I want to find some NodeJS library or other solution to fill the document with information. I dont want to make a new PDF. All I want to do is fill in different places of the tax agencys pdf form.
I have looked through this thread: Fill Data In Existing PDF Form Using NodeJS
But find it hard to get a definitive answer as to what is the best approach, several of the librarys mentioned in that thread are not a viable option in 2021 it seems.
Anyone out there with a good recommendation? As I said, I dont want to make my own PDF or anything fancy. I just want to fill out a pre existing PDF which I got from the tax agencys website. Thanks!
EDIT: I tried node package pdf-fill-form. Couldn't install it.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Dec-10 at 20:29If it is "just for you", the easiest approach would be creating an FDF for the forms, and use Acrobat (Reader) to do the filling and rendering.
This would relief you from dealing with the actual PDF file.
