+Notes regarding pdftk, pdf forms and fdf files (form definition file)
+fields names can be extracted with:
+ pdftk orig.pdf generate_fdf output truc.fdf
+to merge fdf and pdf:
+ pdftk orig.pdf fill_form test.fdf output result.pdf [flatten]
+without flatten, one could further edit the resulting form.
