Date: July 10, 2025, 6 p.m.

About a year and half ago, I did a speak at ChiPy about my open source project PyPDFForm. The project has been evolving since then with lots of newly implemented features and QOL changes. So I think it's time to do a part 2 of the speak to give some quick updates and introduce some of these new features.

Agenda (tenative):

  • Quick recap on features went through from last speak
  • Slide intro to new features
  • Live coding session:
    • Create PDF form fields
      • Text field
      • Checkbox/radio button
      • Dropdown
      • Image/Signature field
    • Fill PDF forms in place (simulate manual filling)
    • Adobe Acrobat mode
  • QOL changes
  • Restrictions and future improvements
  • Q/A
