sdapspdf package ================ You can use this package to make PDF forms using the SDAPS packages. SDAPS itself does not give you a way to submit these though. To use this feature simply use the sdapspdf package. You need to wrap everything containing PDF form elements inside a :environ:`Form` environment. After this enable form generation by simply setting the ``pdf_form`` option for checkboxes and freeform textboxes. .. note:: The sdapspdf package imports hyperref internally. So some care might need to be taken to import it after hyperref itself. The following extra options are added to boxes and checkboxes: =================== ===================== Option Purpose =================== ===================== pdf_form Turn on PDF form generation (default: `false`) default Allows enabling a checkbox by default (default: `false`, set to `true` to use) checkboxsymbol The symbol to use for the checkmark (integer, see PDF specification, default: 8) =================== ===================== .. warning:: The default for pdf_form might still change to be `true`. .. note:: The SDAPS base package will likely add further macros to make setting these options more convenient. .. sdaps:: Using PDF forms :preamble: \usepackage{sdapspdf} % Define aliases for the commands we need to use, context_append % expands settings, context_set sets them (for the current scope), % possibly removing old settings. \ExplSyntaxOn \let\mycontextappend\sdaps_context_append:nn \let\mycontextset\sdaps_context_set:nn \let\mycheckbox\sdaps_checkbox:nn \let\mytextboxvhstretch\sdaps_textbox_vhstretch:nnn \ExplSyntaxOff \begin{Form} % The \my* commands are aliases that are defined in the praemble % Set the pdf_form option for all boxes (*) \mycontextappend{*}{pdf_form=true} % Or for checkboxes and textboxes separately %\mycontextappend{singlechoice}{pdf_form=true} %\mycontextappend{multichoice}{pdf_form=true} %\mycontextappend{textbox}{pdf_form=true} \noindent A checkbox: \mycheckbox{}{} \newline \mycontextappend{multichoice}{default=true} A checked checkbox: \mycheckbox{}{} \newline \mycontextappend{multichoice}{default=true,checkboxsymbol=5} A checked checkbox with different symbol: \mycheckbox{}{} Please note that the above rendering is slightly broken as the poppler PDF renderer maps the checkboxsymbol incorrectly.
