How to do Form Filling in WindowsForms using PdfViewerControl?
At Present we do not have support for Form Filling in Windows Forms using PdfViewerControl. However we have created a workaround to perform the same action in Windows Forms.
The following code snippet from the attached sample is an example to add a Field at particular location.
C#
/// <summary>
/// Adds the Fields for particular page
/// </summary>
/// <param name="index">Index of the page</param>
public void AddFields(int index)
{
//FormFilesDictionary contans all the fields of particlar PDF page
foreach (var currentField in FormFilesDictionary[index])
{
PdfPageBase page = ((PdfField)currentField).Page;
//Adds a textbox if the current Field is Textbox
if (currentField is PdfLoadedTextBoxField)
{
PdfLoadedTextBoxField txtField = currentField as PdfLoadedTextBoxField;
TextBox txtBlock = new TextBox();
txtBlock.Text = txtField.Text;
// Textbox will get added to the Page
panel1.Controls.Add(txtBlock);
}
}
}
