title: Need to auto-populate info to fillable PDF online, be able to edit the data, and then save directly to server
body: <p>I'm working on a project where one of the main focuses is that the user be able to auto-populate an already-created industry-standard fillable template PDF form with data, then edit fields that were not populated (and/or fields that were populated) and save the form to the server as a PDF (with the fields populated).</p>
  
  <p>Without flattening.</p>
  
  <p>Because the user also needs the ability to recall that same file (the name and location of the file will be saved in the database) in order to make changes, print it and re-save it. 
  Changes to populated fields do not necessarily need to be ported back to the database to "fix" the source data.</p>
  
  <p>Most PDFs will be multiple pages but merging will not need to be done, because the pages will already be in the source PDF with the fillable fields.</p>
  
  <p>I'm looking to do this in a PHP/MySQL environment on a CentOS system through an SSL connection. Any solution or combination of solutions would be welcome (FPDF, PDFtk, iText, Java, AJAX, Reader XI, etc).</p>
  
  <p>Solutions I can buy that have already been figured out by a company are okay.</p>
  
  <p>I've been searching SO and Google for days and can't seem to find an all-encompassing method that does exactly what I need. Any help or pointing in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.</p>
