I've looked everywhere and can not find an answer to this. I'm hoping that the vast brain trust in this "room" can help me.

Here is what I am doing...

I want to attach a .jpg of a signature to a form. Every form is different as to where that location is BUT I have a form field (fSignature) where that signature needs to go.

In Acrobat, using javascript, I am able to determine the location of that text field and place the watermark there OR use a button and replace the icon with the .jpg.

I really want to do this from ColdFusion, though. With CF8, I can do a <cfpdf action="getinfo"> and a <cfpdfform action="read"> to get information, but none of it tells me WHERE the fields are. Nor can I find a CF8 function that allows me to either put a .jpg in a text field (understandably) or change the icon of a form button.

So, in summary, my questions are:

Does anyone know how to change the icon of a PDF Form button?

AND/OR

Does anyone know how to determine the field.rect of a form field?

(It is my fervent hope that this is a simple issue that has been well documented and that I am just too blind to see it)
 
Thanks. The more the merrier.

I have been exploring a lot Lowagie's iText examples as of late. So if you have any other questions, or something you would like see, feel free to throw up a comment or question. I will be glad to help if I can.

Cheers
