This PDF::Reuse looks pretty good from what I can see so far, 5 minutes. Looks like I would just need to specify where I want to put my info on the form, text and font etc. My ultimate goal is to let the graphics department freely(almost) manipulate the layout and fonts, etc. without me having to make constant changes. If they suddenly think the name or address need to be in a different font, just change the template and the problem is solved. I know it might be a pipe dream but it seems like this is a much needed function. There are LOTS of forms used everyday, why not be able to lay them out in anything and then fill them out as you go...
