I am working on project where we have PDF files containing controls like text fields, check box etc. These controls are added using Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Professional. Here this file is passed as input to to C# application and it fills data to the controls added on PDF file. Output is file containing PDF template containing data from Database fields. We are currently performing manual testing for Output file. My questions are,

1. Is there any utility/ feature using which we can check for alignment of text added in control?

2. Is there any way using which we can test data in the merged file?

What exactly do you mean by #1?

As far as #2 goes, you need to read the data back from the file to find out if it's the same that you have stored in your database. There is nothing in Acrobat that would do that for you, you will have to create your own application to compare the data (or add that to your existing data merge application).
