A map eform rule creates a two-way mapping. When PRPC extracts data from an incoming PDF form, it uses this rule to determine into which properties to write the field values. When PRPC generates a new PDF form, it uses the map to determine into which form fields to write property values from the clipboard.

Use the Mapping tab to specify which eForm file rule holds the PDF form the mapping represents and to define the mappings between form fields and properties.

File

If you want to map field values to properties in classes other than the Applies To class, first create an entry for that class on the Pages & Classes tab. Then you can use the usual property syntax (pagename.propertyname) to reference the property.
