Wolfgang, editable pdf fields are also good idea, but this will be just another form or current workflow, and I want another thing. I want to generate pdf with data already filled in, taken from a database. The form should be repeated as many times as there are rows in the database. By database I mean xml or plain text or excel format (cvs), whatever easy editable. What about it? Vyatcheslav

I have a rather specific question. In my workplace, there are many forms in Word format:

TITLE OF THE FORM A student ___________________________ (name, surname) was employed at ________________ (place) _______ (date) bla-bla bla-bla

The fields represented here by underlines should be filled in. Typically, it should be done electronically for a number (say, a group) of students, and then printed out. Performing this task in Word was proven to be error-prone and tedious.

What is the best way to handle such forms in ConTeXt? Maybe, some generic examples are already available?

Look into the widgets manual: http://pragma-ade.com/show-man-22.htm
