    Default Fill PDF forms with Qt code?

    This should go into the programming forum. Sorry for that.
    Dear admin, would you like to change this? Thank you.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------
    Dear colleagues,
    I try to fill out fields of PDF forms in code with Qt.

    I did this before in a C# project with iTextSharp. Is there a way to do this same with Qt?
    Thanks in advance.

    Env: Win8.1, MS-VS2012, Qt5.1
    Best regards,
    Thomas

    This has nothing to do with Qt.
    If you have a library that offers that functionality you juts need to link to it and call the needed functions.
    AFAIK Qt does not have that functionality built in. (Editing PDF)

    Do you write clean code? - if you are TDD'ing then maybe, if not, your not writing clean code.

    Rude. Nonetheless, I find all the modern PDF libraries like PoDoFo and Hummus to be quite inconvenient to use. Even filling the forms manually, with js tools like this one https://w9.pdffiller.com/ is more cosy workaround yet
