The following C# web service code example creates a PDF
document that is based on a form design assembled by the Assembler
service. The Assembler service assembles fragments located in multiple
XDP files into a single form design. Application logic that invokes
the Assembler service is located in a user-defined method named GetFormDesign.
The non-interactive form is saved as a PDF file named Loan.pdf on
the client computer. (See Creating PDF Documents Using Fragments.)
