How do I populate a .pdf form via mysql and php
I have successfully configured a pdf form to submit values from fields to a .php web page. From there I can have php submit the data to a mysql database. How will I have php and mysql re-populate that form for later use? How do I tell php to push back fields to a pdf form?

I like FPDF, too. It gives you control to the 1/100 inch.
