  I’m trying to create a PDF from an ASP.NET form, filled out by the user of our application. I can get the PDF to render from the plain HTML, however, I need all the values entered on the form by the user so the form is filled out in the PDF file. Is there a way to do this easily from .NET, or is there a way to generate the PDF file with actual PDF fields that I could access like:

  PDFField.Name = tbName

  … Or something simple like that?

  Or more accurately:

  PDFDocAttributes.Field.Name = tbName.Text

  … as if the PDF document could have editable fields before the actual render occurs?
