Oh, right. Sorry, I guess I spoke too soon. I haven't actually imported pdf's as images, I always saved the pdf as an image first then imported that. I have a bunch of forms that I fill in that way and I've always been able to set everything up for the user first -- I've never tried to do it "on the fly." Sorry to mislead you....

Wow! Hold it right there! My original 'seed' for this thread was a question as to how one
could import a PDF as an IMAGE . . .

. . . Please tell all . . . :)

overlay fields wherever I need them, then fill them in by script, and print the result. If you want to export it instead of printing it, you could take a snapshot of the result and export that as jpg or, I guess, as a pdf file, though I'm not sure about the latter, maybe use the pdfLib for that.
