Overview of the sample

This sample illustrates how to manipulate data in an Adobe XML Form with either the "FormData Integration" service or the Forms service. It has a simple PDF document, and two different approaches to set data and integrate the data with the form.

Note: Since this feature is not included LiveCycle ES 2.5, so the sample won't be included in the LiveCycle ES 2.5 sample list any more.
