The PDF Viewer control provides the option to add, edit and delete the Form Fields. The Form Fields type supported by the PDF Viewer Control are:

* Textbox
* Password
* CheckBox
* RadioButton
* ListBox
* DropDown
* SignatureField
* InitialField

Add a form field to PDF document programmatically

Using addFormField method, the form fields can be added to the PDF document programmatically. We need to pass two parameters in this method. They are Form Field Type and Properties of Form Field Type. To add form field programmatically, Use the following code.

import { PdfViewer, Toolbar, Magnification, Navigation, LinkAnnotation,ThumbnailView, BookmarkView,
         TextSelection, Annotation, FormDesigner, FormFields, TextFieldSettings, RadioButtonFieldSettings, 
         CheckBoxFieldSettings, InitialFieldSettings, SignatureFieldSettings } from '@syncfusion/ej2-pdfviewer';

PdfViewer.Inject( Toolbar,Magnification, Navigation, LinkAnnotation, ThumbnailView,
                  BookmarkView, TextSelection, Annotation, FormDesigner, FormFields );

let pdfviewer: PdfViewer = new PdfViewer({ 
    documentPath:'https://cdn.syncfusion.com/content/pdf/form-designer.pdf',
    resourceUrl:"https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/23.1.43/dist/ej2-pdfviewer-lib"
});
pdfviewer.appendTo('#PdfViewer');

pdfviewer.documentLoad = function (args) {
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField("Textbox", { name: "First Name", bounds: { X: 146, Y: 229, Width: 150, Height: 24 }as TextFieldSettings });
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField("Textbox", { name: "Middle Name", bounds: { X: 338, Y: 229, Width: 150, Height: 24 }as TextFieldSettings});
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('Textbox', {name: 'Last Name',bounds: { X: 530, Y: 229, Width: 150, Height: 24 }as TextFieldSettings,});
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('RadioButton', {bounds: { X: 148, Y: 289, Width: 18, Height: 18 },name: 'Gender',isSelected: false}as RadioButtonFieldSettings);
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('RadioButton', {bounds: { X: 292, Y: 289, Width: 18, Height: 18 },name: 'Gender',isSelected: false,}as RadioButtonFieldSettings);
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('Textbox', {name: 'DOB Month',bounds: { X: 146, Y: 320, Width: 35, Height: 24 }as TextFieldSettings,});
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('Textbox', {name: 'DOB Date',bounds: { X: 193, Y: 320, Width: 35, Height: 24 }as TextFieldSettings,});
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('Textbox', {name: 'DOB Year',bounds: { X: 242, Y: 320, Width: 35, Height: 24 }as TextFieldSettings,});
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('InitialField', {name: 'Agree',bounds: { X: 148, Y: 408, Width: 200, Height: 43 },} as InitialFieldSettings);
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('InitialField', {name: 'Do Not Agree',bounds: { X: 148, Y: 466, Width: 200, Height: 43 },} as InitialFieldSettings);
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('CheckBox', {name: 'Text Message',bounds: { X: 56, Y: 664, Width: 20, Height: 20 },isChecked: false,}as CheckBoxFieldSettings);
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('CheckBox', {name: 'Email',bounds: { X: 242, Y: 664, Width: 20, Height: 20 },isChecked: false,}as CheckBoxFieldSettings);
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('CheckBox', {name: 'Appointment Reminder',bounds: { X: 56, Y: 740, Width: 20, Height: 20 },isChecked: false,}as CheckBoxFieldSettings);
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('CheckBox', {name: 'Request for Customerservice',bounds: { X: 56, Y: 778, Width: 20, Height: 20 },isChecked: false,}as CheckBoxFieldSettings);
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('CheckBox', {name: 'Information Billing',bounds: { X: 290, Y: 740, Width: 20, Height: 20 },isChecked: false,}as CheckBoxFieldSettings);
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('Textbox', {name: 'My Email',bounds: { X: 146, Y: 850, Width: 200, Height: 24 }as TextFieldSettings,});
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('Textbox', {name: 'My Phone',bounds: { X: 482, Y: 850, Width: 200, Height: 24 }as TextFieldSettings,});
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('SignatureField', {name: 'Sign',bounds: { X: 57, Y: 923, Width: 200, Height: 43 },}as SignatureFieldSettings);
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('Textbox', {name: 'DOS Month',bounds: { X: 386, Y: 923, Width: 35, Height: 24 }as TextFieldSettings,});
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('Textbox', {name: 'DOS Date',bounds: { X: 434, Y: 923, Width: 35, Height: 24 }as TextFieldSettings} );
    pdfviewer.formDesignerModule.addFormField('Textbox', {name: 'DOS Year',bounds: { X: 482, Y: 923, Width: 35, Height: 24 }as TextFieldSettings,});

Edit/Update form field programmatically

Using updateFormField method, Form Field can be updated programmatically. We should get the Form Field object/Id from FormFieldCollections property that you would like to edit and pass it as a parameter to updateFormField method. The second parameter should be the properties that you would like to update for Form Field programmatically. We have updated the value and background Color properties of Textbox Form Field.

Validate form fields

The form fields in the PDF Document will be validated when the enableFormFieldsValidation is set to true and hook the validateFormFields. The validateFormFields will be triggered when the PDF document is downloaded or printed with the non-filled form fields. The non-filled fields will be obtained in the nonFillableFields property of the event arguments of validateFormFields.

Add the following code snippet to validate the form fields,

import { PdfViewer, Toolbar, Magnification, Navigation, LinkAnnotation,ThumbnailView, BookmarkView,
TextSelection, Annotation, FormDesigner, FormFields, TextFieldSettings} from '@syncfusion/ej2-pdfviewer';

PdfViewer.Inject(Toolbar,Magnification, Navigation, LinkAnnotation,ThumbnailView,BookmarkView,
TextSelection, Annotation, FormDesigner, FormFields);

let pdfviewer: PdfViewer = new PdfViewer({ documentPath:'https://cdn.syncfusion.com/content/pdf/form-designer.pdf' });
pdfviewer.appendTo('#PdfViewer');
pdfviewer.enableFormFieldsValidation = true;
viewer.validateFormFields= function (args) {
var nonfilledFormFields = args.nonFillableFields;
}
import { PdfViewer, Toolbar, Magnification, Navigation, LinkAnnotation,ThumbnailView, BookmarkView,
TextSelection, Annotation, FormDesigner, FormFields, TextFieldSettings} from '@syncfusion/ej2-pdfviewer';

PdfViewer.Inject(Toolbar,Magnification, Navigation, LinkAnnotation,ThumbnailView,BookmarkView,
TextSelection, Annotation, FormDesigner, FormFields);

let pdfviewer: PdfViewer = new PdfViewer({ documentPath:'https://cdn.syncfusion.com/content/pdf/form-designer.pdf' });

Export and import form fields

The PDF Viewer control provides the support to export and import the form field data in the following formats using the importFormFields, exportFormFields, and exportFormFieldsAsObject methods.

  • FDF
  • XFDF
  • JSON

Export and import as FDF

Using the exportFormFields method, the form field data can be exported in the specified data format. This method accepts two parameters:

  • The first one must be the destination path for the exported data. If the path is not specified, it will ask for the location while exporting.
  • The second parameter should be the format type of the form data.

The following code explains how to export the form field data as FDF.

<button id="exportFdf">Export FDF</button>
<button id="importFdf">Import FDF</button>
<!--Add the PDF Viewer-->
<div id="pdfViewer" style="height: 640px; width: 100%"></div>

// Event triggers on Export FDF button click.
document.getElementById('exportFdf').addEventListener('click', ()=> {
    // Data must be the desired path for the exported document.
    viewer.exportFormFields('Data', FormFieldDataFormat.Fdf);
});

// Event triggers on Import FDF button click.
document.getElementById('importFdf').addEventListener('click', ()=> {
    // The file for importing the form field should be placed in the desired location, and the path should be provided correctly
    viewer.importFormFields('File', FormFieldDataFormat.Fdf);
});

Export and import as XFDF

The following code explains how to export the form field data as XFDF.

<button id="exportXfdf">Export XFDF</button>
<button id="importXfdf">Import XFDF</button>
<!--Add the PDF Viewer-->
<div id="pdfViewer" style="height: 640px; width: 100%"></div>

// Event triggers on Export XFDF button click.
document.getElementById('exportXfdf').addEventListener('click', ()=> {
    // Data must be the desired path for the exported document.
    viewer.exportFormFields('Data', FormFieldDataFormat.Xfdf);
});

// Event triggers on Import XFDF button click.
document.getElementById('importXfdf').addEventListener('click', ()=> {
    // The file for importing the form field should be placed in the desired location, and the path should be provided correctly
    viewer.importFormFields('File', FormFieldDataFormat.Xfdf);
});

Export and import as JSON

The following code explains how to export the form field data as JSON.

<button id="exportJson">Export JSON</button>
<button id="importJson">Import JSON</button>
<!--Add the PDF Viewer-->
<div id="pdfViewer" style="height: 640px; width: 100%"></div>

// Event triggers on Export JSON button click.
document.getElementById('exportJson').addEventListener('click', ()=> {
    // Data must be the desired path for the exported document.
    viewer.exportFormFields('Data', FormFieldDataFormat.Json);
});

// Event triggers on Import JSON button click.
document.getElementById('importJson').addEventListener('click', ()=> {
    // The file for importing the form field should be placed in the desired location, and the path should be provided correctly
    viewer.importFormFields('File', FormFieldDataFormat.Json);
});

Export and import as Object

The PDF Viewer control supports exporting the form field data as an object, and the exported data will be imported into the current PDF document from the object.

The following code shows how to export the form field data as an object and import the form field data from that object into the current PDF document via a button click.

<button id="exportDataAsObject">Export Object</button>
<button id="importData">Import Data</button>
<!--Add the PDF Viewer-->
<div id="pdfViewer" style="height: 640px; width: 100%"></div>

let exportedData;

// Event triggers on Export Object button click.
document.getElementById('exportDataAsObject').addEventListener('click', ()=> {
    // Export the form field data to an FDF object.
    viewer.exportFormFieldsAsObject(FormFieldDataFormat.Fdf).then(value => {
        exportedData = value;
    });

    // // Export the form field data to an XFDF object.
    // viewer.exportFormFieldsAsObject(FormFieldDataFormat.Xfdf).then(value =>{
    //      exportedData = value;
    // })

    // // Export the form field data to an JSON object.
    // viewer.exportFormFieldsAsObject(FormFieldDataFormat.Json).then(value =>{
    //      exportedData = value;
    // })
});

// Event triggers on Import Data button click.
document.getElementById('importData').addEventListener('click', ()=> {
    // Import the form field data from the FDF object into the current PDF document.
    viewer.importFormFields(exportedData, FormFieldDataFormat.Fdf);

    //// Import the form field data from the XFDF object into the current PDF document.
    //viewer.importFormFields (exportedData, FormFieldDataFormat.Xfdf);

    //// Import the form field data from the FDF object into the current PDF document.
    //viewer.importFormFields (exportedData, FormFieldDataFormat.Json);
});
