Processing PDF Forms

Hello,

We are in the process of setting up a Perl script to process PDF/FDF forms and need some assistance on how to process the MIME data sent to the script.

According to the Acrobat Pro's documentation, when you use the "baked in" submit
form function within Adobe Acrobat (as I am doing), Acrobat sends the data to
the server in whatever file format you specify when setting up the submit
button.

(Reference:
Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard * Add submit functionality )


The way I'm understanding this reference, the end user's Acrobat software is
submitting the format that I've specified in the submit button (within the PDF
form) ... if that's the case, can't the script read the MIME data, save a temp
file based on that MIME data, then attach that temp file to an e-mail address.
This is the end results we like to accomplish. Have the Perl script interupted
the PDF form and read the MIME data. Is this possible to do? If so how would the
script determine the MIME data or the correct way to do this within the script?

Thanks again for any assistance.

Mike
