Extract PDF Form C# Overview
Extract interactive form data from PDF into FDF, a lightweight, standardized format for exchanging PDF form values. Open password‑protected PDFs when required, and optionally include alternate field names to improve downstream mapping and interoperability. The resulting FDF file contains structured key‑value pairs that are easy to integrate with databases, workflow systems, or validation tools. Ideal for ingestion pipelines, e‑forms processing, and cross‑platform exchange where compact, portable form data is needed.

File
File Supported formats: .pdfFile to be converted. Value can be URL or file content.
Password
StringSets the password to open protected documents.
IncludeAlternateNames
Bool Default: FalseInclude alternate field names (/TU) from the PDF as tooltips in the FDF output.
StoreFile
Bool Default: FalseWhen the StoreFile parameter is set to True, your converted file is written to ConvertAPI’s encrypted, temporary storage and made available via a time-limited secure download URL, valid for up to 3 hours. After this period, the file is permanently deleted.
When StoreFile is set to False, conversion happens entirely in-memory. The raw file bytes are streamed back in the API response without touching disk or external storage, ensuring maximum security and zero persistence so that only you can access the content.
