Form designer: How to complete form fields from an uploaded PDF form

You can populate fields of a WorkflowGen web form (built with the Form Designer) with values from a PDF form uploaded by the current user. To do this:

  1. Reference the PDFSharp component (open source). Download PDFSharp and copy the DLLs into the \wfgen \WfApps\WebForms\Bin\PDFSharp.dll folder.

  2. Insert an attachment tool in your web form. From the toolbar, select the Attachment tool and click on + to insert it into your selected section.

  3. Edit your inserted attachment by clicking on the pencil icon.

    1. On the Behavior tab, check WorkflowFileUpload and set PDF for only allowed extensions.

    2. On the Custom Attributes tab, add the attribute Name: ononfileuploaded, Value: OnFileUploaded.

  4. Add code-behind in your web form. In the Form Designer, click on the .NET icon.

  5. Add and customize with your fields’ IDs the following code:

    protected void OnFileUploaded(object sender, UploadedFileEventArgs e){ string value = null; // DropDownlist (Radiobuttonlist, checkboxlist) value = GetFieldValue(e.File.FullName, "PDF_MYDROPDOWNLIST"); if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(value)) { this.REQUEST_DROPDOWNLIST1.SelectedValue = value; } // Textbox (textarea) this.REQUEST_COMMENT.Text = GetFieldValue(e.File.FullName, "PDF_TEXT");}
    protected string GetFieldValue(string PdfTemplatePath, string FieldName){ string value = null; PdfSharp.Pdf.PdfDocument document = PdfSharp.Pdf.IO.PdfReader.Open(PdfTemplatePath, PdfSharp.Pdf.IO.PdfDocumentOpenMode.ReadOnly); // Get the root object of all interactive form fields PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfAcroForm form = document.AcroForm; // Get all form fields of the whole document PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfAcroField.PdfAcroFieldCollection fields = form.Fields; // Get the field PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfAcroField field = fields[FieldName]; if (field != null) { PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfTextField txtField; PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfRadioButtonField radField; PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfCheckBoxField chkField; PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfListBoxField lbxField; PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfComboBoxField cbxField; PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfGenericField genField; if ((txtField = field as PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfTextField) != null) { value = txtField.Text; } else if ((radField = field as PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfRadioButtonField) != null) { value = Convert.ToString(radField.Value); } else if ((chkField = field as PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfCheckBoxField) != null) { value = Convert.ToString(chkField.Value); } else if ((lbxField = field as PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfListBoxField) != null) { value = Convert.ToString(lbxField.Value); } else if ((cbxField = field as PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfComboBoxField) != null) { value = Convert.ToString(cbxField.Value); } else if ((genField = field as PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfGenericField) != null) { value = Convert.ToString(genField.Value); } } if (value.StartsWith("/")) { value = value.Remove(0, 1); } return value;}
    

Bonjour ,
Est ce que le code behind permet de récupérer les données de fichier pdf dans (DropDownlist, Radiobuttonlist, checkboxlist) ??

Merci
