Hi,

Anyone know whether it is possible programattically to change the x and y co-ordinates of form fields (using JavaScript). I am currently using an old Acrobat Version 4, which doesnt seem to have x,y properties. Does version 5+ have this capability.

I have an application which comprises merging data to business card templates, and (for example) depending on where the logo is, I would like to relocate the Name information to specific x,y co-ordinates.

Do I have other alternatives to populate a PDF with dynamic data, other than using FDF and form fields ??

Any advise greatly appreciated,,

TIA
