Hi, You can first place empty DIVs in your HTML, give each DIV a unique name, then after the conversion uses this method to get an HtmlElement object: http://www.essentialobjects.com/doc/4/eo.pdf.htmldocument.getelementbyid.aspxThe result HtmlElement can provide you the location of the HTML element (page number and position in the page). You can then use that information and the ACM interface to add input fields into the PDF file. Thanks!

Hi, That's something you will need to figure out yourself because we don't code for you. From the HTML to PDF component of view, it provides several functions for you to get information about an element in your HTML. GetElementById is the easiest one. There are several other methods you can take a look and see which one works for you better: http://www.essentialobjects.com/doc/4/eo.pdf.htmldocumentmethods.aspxThanks!
