Probably the biggest challenge (at least in my mind) is the "Fill Out the Form" part of your question. If it is a form that you don't originate and you need to fill fields in the form, you have a greater challenge than if you originate the form yourself, completing the fields as you create the form.

iText (a Java open source project) can do this and I have some code that wraps the iText API but it is pretty much oriented to creating a columnar report. Changing that code to either fill fields in an existing pdf or to create a new form wouldn't be trivial but is would be doable.

possible to fill that form out with an RPG program?
